Marujeiro Caprichoso

Feel the beat that drives the fan crazy
Now the sound will start
In Caprichoso I will play

It has the rhythm of the little box swinging
And in the sway, the marujeira in the rubbing
From Francesa the rhythm of tradition
From Palmares the pounding of the bass drum
Makes it tremble!

And the spirited marujeiro plays with fervor
(In blue and white with the courage to be champion)
Marujada de Guerra

Hit hard on that drum
Curious Caprichoso
In the swirl of this love

(Hit hard on that drum)
Curious Caprichoso
In the swirl of this love

There's black drumming, there's xequerê (hey, hey, hey)
Playing for Mother Earth, there's tamurá (hey, hey, hey)
There's clapping, repique, little box, and rubbing (swinging ah-ah)
And for the festive people, there's our ox bumbá!
(Marujada de Guerra), hey, hey
