The Strength of Ilê
What brightness is this black
Tell me if it's the one of peace
Tell me if it's the one of love
Tell me, I want to know
This black brightness
Is the brightness of peace
Is the brightness of love
Is the strength of Ilê Ayê
The strength of Ilê Ayê
The strength of Ilê Ayê
Take-take-take-take-take
Take the black out of the slave quarters
Take-take-take-take-take
Take the black out of the slave quarters
And to freedom
Freedom of Ilê
