Canto de Ossanha
Casuarina
Song of Ossanha
The man who says he'll give, won't
Because the one who truly gives doesn't say
The man who says he'll go, won't
Because when he went, he didn't want to
The man who says he is, isn't
Because the one who truly is, isn't me
The man who says he's here, isn't
Because no one is there when they want to be
Poor man who falls
For Ossanha's chant, traitor
Poor man who goes
After love spells
Go, go, go, go, I won't
Go, go, go, go, I won't
I won't, I won't
Because I'm not one to
Engage in conversations to forget
The sadness of a love that's gone
No, I'll only go if it's to see a star appear
In the morning of a new love
Friend, sir, greetings
Xangô sent me to tell you
If it's Ossanha's chant, don't go
Because you'll regret it a lot
Ask your Orixa
Love is only good if it hurts
Ask your Orixa
Love is only good if it hurts
Go, go, go, go love
Go, go, go, go suffer
Cry
Saying that I'm not one to
Engage in conversations to forget
The sadness of a love that's gone
No, I'll only go if it's to see a star appear
In the morning of a new love
Greetings, Xangô, greetings, Xangô
Greetings, Xangô, greetings
The man who says he'll give, won't
Because the one who truly gives doesn't say
The man who says he'll go, won't
Because when he went, he didn't want to
The man who says he is, isn't
Because the one who truly is, isn't me
The man who says he's here, isn't
Because no one is there when they want to be
Poor man who falls
For Ossanha's chant, traitor
Poor man who goes
After love spells, I won't
I won't, I won't
I won't because I'm not one to
Engage in conversations to forget
The sadness of a love that's gone
No, I'll only go if it's to see a star appear
In the morning of a new love
Greetings, Xangô, greetings, Xangô
