The song is a lament about not recognizing Jesus as He passes through one's life.
St. Agustine said... Timeo Iesum transeuntem et manentem ed ideo tacere non possum. Serm. 88, 14, 13
Meaning... I am afraid of Jesus passing and remaining, and therefore I cannot be silent.
So the Latin reference is slightly different, but reveals the true meaning behind the intentional ominous message.
The sun breaking through the trees is a hint there is truth in the message.
Then they return to their material world with their ego filled with knowledge that they seemingly forgot.
They invested in earthly and wasteful things. An unused car. Costly singing birds.
They missed the passage of Jesus in their lifetimes.
