Here comes the force, here comes the magic
That sets my body on fire with joy
Here comes the Holy, damn euphoria
That warms me, throws me and spins me around

Here comes the scream, the roar of the beast
Here comes the voice of any spring
Here comes the nail tearing the throat
The hunger, the fury, the blood that already rises

Where does this thing so mine come from?
That warms me and caresses me?
Where does this raw thing come from?
That shakes me, puts me in the middle of the street?

It's a lament, a purer song
That lights up my dark house
It's my strength, it's our energy
That comes from far away to keep me company

It's Clementina singing beautifully
The adventures of his distressed people
It's Mr. Francisco, cap and pipe
Teaching me that the fight is really with me

All Marys, Mary Domingas
Vilma and Aunt Hercília dock
It's Monsueto and it's Grande Otelo
Dock, dock, Naná is coming

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, aiêra-iêra

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, aiêra-iêra
