I have some reading knowledge of Portuguese, but it’s just not quite good enough to pick it up from the sung lyrics alone. I can tell you that the title of the song is “Cry of Mercy” (and NOT “misery” as it might look like it should be in English).
 
I am not quite good at this, but the translation of the first words are.

Have Mercy, Have Mercy
Have Mercy on me, my Lord.
 
Here it is in Portuguese and English:

Misericórdia, misericórdia, misericórdia de mim ó meu Senhor.

Tende piedade,
Piedade porque eu sou tão pecador
Piedade pelas vezes, que traí o seu amor
Piedade de mim, ó meu Senhor.

Mercy, mercy, mercy on me, O my Lord

Have mercy,
Mercy because I am such a sinner
Mercy for the times when I betrayed your love
Mercy on me, O my Lord.

This web page (link below) gives a list of Fr Reginaldo’s song titles. If you click on the title, the lyric will appear. If you need any further help, let me know. I live in Brazil.
