The Berimbau

The Berimbau
In the capoeira circle
Once fell silent
It almost seems like a thing of the past
To see a man kneeling
Because his gunga broke
Oh, what sadness
How it hurts in the heart
I also suffered, cried
Because I understood
For on that day too
I received my berimbau
I asked what his name was
He then replied
My name is capoeira
From the camafeu stone
I wonder if my God knows
How much sadness one endures
When I play a berimbau
And if the berimbau didn't speak
I wouldn't speak either
I wouldn't play Capoeira
And I wouldn't like anyone
But my berimbau speaks
Speaks berimbau, play capoeira
Camafeu is crying
Saying it this way
Speaks berimbau, play capoeira
It almost seems
Like I'm there in Ribeira
