Oxóssi

Oxóssi, son of Yemanjá
Deity of the Ogum clan
It is Ibualama, it is Inlé
That Oxum took in the river
And was born Logunedé!

His nature is of the moon
In the moon Oxóssi is Odé Odé-Odé, Odé-Odé
King of Keto Caboclo of the forest Odé-Odé.

Thursday is his ossé
Axoxó, black beans, shrimp and peanuts
Blue and green, his colors
Lace white pants
Short printed skirt

Ojá and silver breastplate
In hand ofá, iluquerê
Okê okê, okê arô, okê.
The jurema is the sacred tree
Okê arô, Oxóssi, okê okê

In Bahia he is Saint George
In Rio, Saint Sebastian
Oxóssi is the one in charge
In the band of my heart
