Samba Enredo 2002 - Checkmate
I'm a Hawk, I'm a King...(I am, I am)
On the chessboard of life, oh, oh, oh.
I'm faithful to an ideal
It's checkmate, I'm in the area, it's Carnival
Maybe
It may take a thousand and one nights to tell
From the East, the wind carries my song
Bringing poetry
Passions, endless love stories...
An engaging game finally
That enchanted the Old World
There's contraband
The merchant has contraband
There's novelty
Come play Chaturanga
In the dance of the stones
There's a pawn fighting to survive
Against the IMF
Which on its winged horse
Always ill-intentioned
Is the queen of power
I want my Brazil
Playing fair...
The people checking corruption
A check on impunity
And the drum shaking the crowd
It's time for the turnaround (come love)
I have faith and hope (in the heart)
My country, a child, will change
And happiness will shine
