A Sementinha

The sower went out to sow
He threw the little seed to cultivate the land
Some of the seed fell by the wayside
The birds came, started pecking

Shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo, little bird!
Let the little seed grow in the land
Shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo, little bird!
Let the little seed grow in the land

Some seeds fell among the stones
They became weak and died in the heat
Another part fell among the thorns
And they were suffocated, pricked. What a horror!

Phew, phew, phew! What scorching sun!
It was the one who dried up my little seed
Phew, phew, phew! What cheeky thorn!
It pricked and suffocated my little seed

Then, the sower cast on good soil
finally the little seed managed to bear fruit
then multiplied forming an orchard
and the sower, then, could rejoice

dum, dum, dum, your little heart!
It's the good soil for the seed to flourish
Dum, dum, dum, Jesus casts the seed!
but it only bears fruit if you truly believe (2x)
