D'angola É, Camará

Comrade, where do you come from? Comrade
From Angola, oh from Angola, Comrade
Comrade, where do you come from? Comrade
From Angola, oh from Angola, Comrade

Oh from there... where do you come from?
I come from Angola, comrade
From beyond the sea
I bring the drumbeat
And the Candomblé

Capoeira with its swagger, of the body or of luck
In the fight of life or death
It's the fight of a brave Black man
That I bring from Angola to here

And I bring from Angola the customs
From dreams a smile of Obá
That samba was born from the drumbeat
That I brought from the other side

And I carry in my chest the hope
And I carry with me forgiveness
And I carry this color that I'm proud of
Whether you like it or not

But, oh from there, where do you come from?
I come from Angola, comrade
From beyond the sea
Through the sea-path of hope

Pelourinho, whip cuts me deep
Back there, with deep hatred
I came to stay in this world
The price my blood paid

I gave life and sweat for the land
I suffered a thousand torments from those
I fought, I struggled, for freedom
And now it's mine too

And the fight is greater in this moment
Warrior of the land that I am
For me, this fight is constant
It started long ago
