Por Um Pedaço de Pão

For a piece of bread and for a little wine
I have seen more than one brother stray from the path
For a piece of bread and for a little wine
I have also seen many people find their way back to heaven
I have also seen many people return to God's company

For a piece of bread and a little wine
God became a meal and became the way
For a piece of bread, for a piece of bread (Repeat)

For not having wine or bread, for lacking food
I have seen more than one brother disillusioned with life
And for not sharing their bread, and for not sharing their wine
I saw those who claimed to be believers suddenly lose their moral values
I saw that the path to peace is only made with justice and equal rights

For a piece of bread and for a little wine
I have seen more than one brother become a selfish man
For a piece of bread and for a little wine
I see nations in conflict and this cursed world for not sharing
I see half of men dying of hunger, without God and without a home
