Sleep, Little Black One

(Lullaby)

Sleep, sleep, little black one,
Your mom is in the countryside,
Little black one...

She will bring
Quails for you.
She will bring
Delicious fruit for you.
She will bring
Pork meat for you.
She will bring
Many things for you.
And if the black one doesn't fall asleep,
The white devil comes
And bam! He eats his little foot,
Chacapumba!

Sleep, sleep, little black one,
Your mom is in the countryside,
Little black one...
Working,
Working hard,
Working, yes.
Working and not getting paid,
Working, yes.
Working and coughing,
Working, yes.
Working and dressed in mourning,
Working, yes.
For the little black child,
Working, yes.
Hard, yes.
Coughing, yes.
Dressed in mourning, yes.
Hard, yes.

Sleep, sleep, little black one,
Your mom is in the countryside,
Little black one...
