The Boy and the Wedding
Before this Christian community
that represents the church of God
I ask you
if anyone has an impediment
for this union to take place
let them speak now
or forever hold their peace...
At the church door, a child cries,
inside a wedding was being celebrated,
in a hut a woman is dying,
she is the mother of the crying child...
He had gone out to look for his dad,
he left his mother alone, very sad,
but upon reaching the church door
he saw his father, the groom of the wedding...
Barefoot, he ran towards the altar..
looking at the priest, he shouted with emotion...
Listen, sir, that wedding must be stopped,
he is my father and my mom is dying..
The reverend looked at the groom and asked,
tell me sir, what is happening?
I swear, father, I don't know that boy,
and I assure you the boy is lying...
But confusion arose in the church,
they took the child out and he cried louder.
He stood at the door with a lump in his throat,
while inside the wedding was being celebrated...
And unaware that his mother had died....
He looked at his father with his bride by his side.
God bless you and forgive you, ungrateful father,
He continued crying with his soul shattered.
