A Toada

Ah, ah, ah, ah
Hey, lai, lai, lai ox
Ah, my ox is coming into the arena
Ah, I want to see the red flags in the air
For my ox to sway, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Hey, lai, lai, lai ox
Hey, hey, hey, hey ox Garantido
I hear the shout of the immense crowd
Ox, ox, ox
That calls and waits for you in the moonlight
You are Garantido, the clamor of this people
Ox, ox, ox
That bursts with the emotion of singing in the chest
You are the strength of our blood
That plays and dances with its ox bumbá
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Hey, lai, lai, lai ox
