     Alberte falemos craros
     nosoutros temos a culpa,
     que se foramos armados
     con aguilladas e chuzos,
     ouberàmos de botalos
     alò para en cas de Iudas.

     "Alberte, let's we make this clear:
     we are to blame,
     because if we had been armed
     with goads and spears
     we would had drove them back
     there until Judas's house."
