A saga do Cantador

Boy, just so you know, oh yeah

The weight of a singer

Is a responsibility

For real, yes sir

It’s not just about shouting hey

And opening your mouth to sing

It’s something that comes from within

Given by my God, my Father

You gotta pass on the energy, oh yeah

And know how to spread it

Talk about beautiful things

And also make you cry

Stars shine in the sky, oh yeah

But they don’t shine like the sun

Our sun is our master

Whom we must respect

So if one day, my God

You don’t hear me sing

Please, old friend

Don’t get mad, alright?

It’s just that today isn’t my day, oh yeah

I’m sorry, my brother

And know that I always carry you

Deep in my heart

Buddy

Hey, long live my God

Hey, long live my master

Hey, capoeira

Hey, hail Bahia

Hey, long live Rio de Janeiro

Hey, hail Brazil
