Meu Samba É de Macumba

My samba is singing, it's dancing
It's quizomba
My samba is from Macumba
The drum will speak

My terreiro samba has axé
In the drumming, my faith
I will salute my Orixá

Ora ye ye
Kaô Cabecile
Epa X'eue Baba
Eparrei!
Laroiê nature, come bless me
With pandeiro, cavaco, viola
Repique and ganzá
I will samba, samba!

My samba is in the blood, it's carnival
Candeia, Mestre Marçal
From Cartola to Jamelão
My samba goes from Império to Mangueira
It's suburb, it's Madureira
To salute my Orixá
