Translation of the song lyrics Menino Deus - Clara Nunes

Menino Deus (original)

Raiou, resplandeceu, iluminou
Na barra do dia o canto do galo ecoou
A flor se abriu
A gota de orvalho brilhou
Quando a manhã surgiu
Dos dedos de nosso senhor
A paz amanheceu sobre o país
E o povo até pensou que já era feliz
Mas foi porque pra tudo mundo pareceu
Que o Menino Deus nasceu
A tristeza se abraçou com a felicidade
Entoando cantos de alegria e liberdade
Parecia um carnaval no meio da cidade
Que me deu vontade de cantar pro meu amor
Raiou, resplandeceu, iluminou
Na barra do dia o canto do galo ecoou
A flor se abriu
A gota de orvalho brilhou
Quando a manhã surgiu
Nos dedos de nosso senhor
A paz amanheceu sobre o país
E o povo até pensou que já era feliz
Mas foi porque pra tudo mundo pareceu
Que o Menino Deus nasceu

(translation)

It blazed, it shone, it lit up
In the bar of the day, the rooster's song echoed
The flower has opened
The dewdrop shone
When morning came
From the fingers of our lord
Peace dawned over the country
And the people even thought they were already happy
But it was because to everyone it seemed
That the Boy God was born
Sadness embraced itself with happiness
Singing songs of joy and freedom
It looked like a carnival in the middle of the city
That made me want to sing for my love
It blazed, it shone, it lit up
In the bar of the day, the rooster's song echoed
The flower has opened
The dewdrop shone
When morning came
On our lord's fingers
Peace dawned over the country
And the people even thought they were already happy
But it was because to everyone it seemed
That the Boy God was born
