To Benguela

Benguela called to play
Benguela called to play Capoeira (Chorus)
It all started like this
Today I have to remember
Maria Martinha from Bonfim
Luiz Candido Machado
Who were the parents of Mestre Bimba
Manoel do Reis Machado
Chorus
In nineteen hundred, this fact happened
On November twenty-three
Mestre Bimba was born
Chorus
Bimba used to say
Playing his berimbau
Sitting on the old bench
Teaching the regional style
Chorus
On graduation days
He was obliged to play
The São Bento Grande
And the Toque de Iuna
The benguela couldn't get dirty
Chorus
On February fifth
Of the year seventy-four
This sadness happened
In the city of Goiânia
Mestre Bimba passed away
