Ogum Xoroquê Chorou

Ogum Xoroquê cried, but Oxum Apara came
His tears, his tears
It was Yemanjá who calmed all of Xangô's rage
The charm of the Saint

Ogum cried and cried, but Oxum Apara came
His tears, his tears
It was Yemanjá who calmed all of Xangô's rage
The charm of the Saint

Olodum, the tide is full of waters of grievances
Beautiful Oyá, Balé of the winds, Omulú's leaves
Come play iluquere, Speak lodum, speak for us
Iaô, Equede, and Alabrê sing in one voice
