O Rufar Dos Tambores
Boi Garantido
The Beating of the Drums
It sped up my heart
I heard the distant beat
Of the Batucada of my ox
I see the glow of the lanterns
I hear my master who rhymes
Verses that speak of moonlight
And there ...... the enchantment of the tune, and the touch of the Batucada
Makes me feel like I'm in heaven...
Stars touch the flowers on my hat
Everything on this island is well defined
That the king of this land is my ox Garantido
The beautiful cowboys bring my beautiful bull
I fell in love with the Batucada of the ox Garantido
And there ...... the enchantment of the tune, and the touch of the Batucada
Makes me feel like I'm in heaven...
Stars touch the flowers on my hat
Everything on this island is well defined
That the king of this land is my ox Garantido
The beautiful cowboys bring my beautiful bull
I fell in love with the Batucada of the ox Garantido.
