Três Caravelas (Las Três Carabelas)
Gilberto Gil
Three Caravels (The Three Caravels)
A daring navigator
Left Palos one day
He went with three caravels
The Pinta, the Niña, and the Santa María
Towards Cuban land
With all his bravery
He went with the three caravels
The Pinta, the Niña, and the Santa María
Many things happened
From that time until now
Brazil happened
It's the greatest
What is there?!
A daring navigator
Left Palos one day
He came with three caravels
The Pinta, the Niña, and the Santa María
In American lands
He happily landed one day
He came with three caravels
The Pinta, the Niña, and the Santa María
Look, you, what things happen
That some years later
In this Cuban land
I found my love
Long live Mr. Christopher
Long live my homeland
Long live the three caravels
The Pinta, the Niña, and the Santa María
Long live Christopher Columbus
For our joy
He came with three caravels
The Pinta, the Niña, and the Santa María
(The Pinta, the Niña, and the Santa María)
