Ponto de Preto Velho - Meu Cativeiro
Juliana D Passos
Point of Black Old Man - My Captivity
I cry my captivity
My captivity, my captivation
I cry my captivity
My captivity, my captivation
I cry my captivity
My captivity, my captivation
I cry my captivity
My captivity, my captivation
In the time of slavery
Black Old Man worked a lot
But had nothing to think about
Carried problems to the master
But had nothing to think about
Carried problems to the master
And when the evening came
Black Old Man played the drum
And when the evening came
Black Old Man played the drum
Then he went to the slave quarters
Salute Ogum, salute father Xangô
Then he went to the slave quarters
Salute Ogum, salute father Xangô
I cry my captivity
My captivity, my captivation
I cry my captivity
My captivity, my captivation
I cry my captivity
My captivity, my captivation
I cry my captivity
My captivity, my captivation
In the time of slavery
Black Old Man worked a lot
But had nothing to think about
Carried problems to the master
But had nothing to think about
Carried problems to the master
And when the evening came
Black Old Man played the drum
And when the evening came
Black Old Man played the drum
Then he went to the slave quarters
Salute Ogum, salute father Xangô
Then he went to the slave quarters
Salute Ogum, salute father Xangô
