A Derrota de Golias

David was ready to fight against Goliath
An uncircumcised enemy of Israel
Who saw David, that young and frail
Facing such a cruel giant
Looking at things from a material perspective
David would never have a chance to escape
Because Goliath was a strong warrior
But David had a God to trust

Saul fearing David's defeat
Offered him armor to fight
David wearing that heavy clothing
Felt awkward and couldn't walk
He thanked Saul for the kindness
Took his sling and chose five stones
He ran towards the battlefield
To meet the Philistine giant

When Goliath saw David approaching
He became furious and started to blaspheme
Is there no man in Israel
To send a boy to face me
I am not a dog to be approached with sticks
Today I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky
David said to him: You come with sword, spear, and shield
I come to you in the name of the God of Israel

This duel lasted fractions of seconds
David struck the Philistine commander
With a very precise stone to his forehead
Goliath fell and perished right there
And the enemy army retreated
And Israel won in the name of the Lord
David took Goliath's head
As a trophy for the victory he achieved
David took Goliath's head
As a trophy for the victory he achieved
