A Onda Rolou Na Praia
Abadá Capoeira
The Wave Rolled on the Beach
(Chorus)
The wave rolled on the beach
And ran back to the sea
Capoeira swayed
In the roda, it started to play
Capoeira swayed
In the roda, it started to play
Meia-lua cut through the wind
Rasteira went to get it
Capoeira swayed
In the roda, it started to play
Capoeira swayed
In the roda, it started to play
(Chorus)
Hold on, man
Let your body sway
To the sound of the berimbau
Capoeira will have to roll
In the rhythm of the atabaque
I want to see people jumping
