Aline Barros - As Pirâmides De Faraó Lyrics
Lyrics
A Bíblia conta que há muito tempo atrás o povo de Israel foi escravizado lá no Egito, onde eles eram forçados a construir pirâmides dia e noite, sem parar!
Havia um rei lá no Egito chamado de Faraó
Era um rei muito malvado, esse tal de Faraó
Ô-ô-ô-ô, sou um poderoso rei
Ô-ô-ô-ô, todo esse povo escravizei
Ô-ô-ô-ô, sou um poderoso rei
Ô-ô-ô-ô, todo esse povo escravizei
Enquanto os escravos construíam pirâmides sem parar
Também oravam noite e dia para Deus os libertar
Ô-ô-ô-ô, ouve nosso clamor
Ô-ô-ô-ô, Deus, alivia nossa dor
Ô-ô-ô-ô, ouve nosso clamor
Ô-ô-ô-ô, Deus, alivia nossa dor
Então Moisés foi a Faraó dizer o que Deus ordenou
O povo de Israel tem que sair, pois assim o Senhor mandou!
Ô-ô-ô-ô, deixa meu povo ir
Ô-ô-ô-ô, para me adorar
Ô-ô-ô-ô, deixa meu povo ir
Ô-ô-ô-ô, para me adorar
Faraó se endureceu, ninguém vai sair daqui
Deus insistiu, deixa o meu povo ir ou o Egito eu vou ferir
Ô-ô-ô-ô, o Egito vai sofrer
Ô-ô-ô-ô, até você me obedecer
Ô-ô-ô-ô, o Egito vai sofrer
Ô-ô-ô-ô, até você me obedecer
Deus então, enviou dez pragas, deixa o meu povo ir!
Quando Deus mostrou o seu poder, Faraó teve que obedecer!
Ô-ô-ô-ô, deixo o teu povo ir
Ô-ô-ô-ô, deixo em paz ele sair
Ô-ô-ô-ô, faz Israel partir!
Ô-ô-ô-ô, orem também por mim!
Han, Faraó é o maior mentiroso, ai!

As Pirâmides de Faraó - Aline Barros & Cia 3 (Oficial)
Meaning & Inspiration
Aline Barros's "As Pirâmides De Faraó," released in 2019, is a powerful declaration of faith, drawing a direct parallel between the monumental, yet ultimately transient, works of human endeavor and the enduring, unshakeable power of God. The song's title itself, referencing the imposing pyramids of Egypt, immediately grounds the listener in a context of earthly might and ancient history, works conceived to awe and to last for millennia. However, Barros masterfully uses this imagery not to celebrate human achievement, but to contrast it with the divine. The central message is one of profound assurance: while earthly structures, however grand, are subject to time and decay, the promises and the presence of God are eternal and absolute. This theme resonates deeply with biblical narratives that consistently highlight the folly of relying on human strength or worldly possessions. Think of the Tower of Babel in Genesis 11, a testament to human pride and ambition that ultimately led to confusion, or Jesus' parable of the rich fool in Luke 12:16-21, whose vast material wealth meant nothing in the face of death. "As Pirâmides De Faraó" powerfully echoes this wisdom, reminding us that true security and lasting significance are found not in what we build with our hands, but in our relationship with the Creator. The song speaks to the ultimate vanity of kingdoms and empires that rise and fall, a recurring motif from ancient Israel's history to the visions of prophets like Daniel, who foretold the succession and eventual judgment of earthly powers. Barros’s interpretation encourages believers to fix their gaze on the unshakeable foundation of God’s kingdom, which, unlike any pyramid or earthly palace, will never be overthrown. It’s a call to anchor our hope in Him, understanding that His love, His word, and His salvation are the only truly eternal structures in existence, a truth powerfully articulated in verses like Hebrews 12:28, which urges us to serve God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire, signifying His absolute power and holiness. This song serves as a beautiful and inspiring reminder to place our ultimate trust and ultimate ambition in the divine, finding our strength and purpose in the unchanging promises of the Almighty.
