Why did Cicero wanted to give Mark Antony power?

Cicero never wanted to give Marc Antony anything least of all power. They were bitter enemies. Cicero executed Antony's stepfather without a trial and later gave a series of scathing speeches against Antony called the Philippics. Also, it was well known that Antony was a close ally of Caesar. When Caesar was assassinated in the Senate, by luck, Brutus did not include Antony on the Senate's death list. That was why Antony insisted that Cicero be included in the proscriptions that the triumvirate ordered and had his head and his hands nailed to the rostra in the forum.

What is the meaning of brutus's speech?

His own life!! see below :D (source-reading packet at school :P) Brutus sits with his few remaining men. He asks them to hold his sword so that he may run against it and kill himself. The Ghost of Caesar has appeared to him on the battlefield, he says, and he believes that the time has come for him to die. His men urge him to flee; he demurs, telling them to begin the retreat, and that he will catch up later. He then asks one of his men to stay behind and hold the sword so that he may yet die honorably. Impaling himself on the sword, Brutus declares that in killing himself he acts on motives twice as pure as those with which he killed Caesar, and that Caesar should consider himself avenged: "Caesar, now be still. / I killed not thee with half so good a will" (V.v.50--51). Antony enters with Octavius, Messala, Lucillius, and the rest of their army. Finding Brutus's body, Lucillius says that he is glad that his master was not captured alive. Octavius decides to take Brutus's men into his own service. Antony speaks over the body, stating that Brutus was the noblest Roman of all: while the other conspirators acted out of envy of Caesar's power, Brutus acted for what he believed was the common good. Brutus was a worthy citizen, a rare example of a real man. Octavius adds that they should bury him in the most honorable way and orders the body to be taken to his tent. The men depart to celebrate their victory. \ Hope it helped :D
