Samba-Enredo 2017 - Only With the Help of the Saint
My drum has axé, Mangueira
I am a faithful son of the People of Aruanda
Born and raised to overcome demand
Baptized at the altar of samba
My drum has axé, Mangueira
I am a faithful son of the People of Aruanda
Born and raised to overcome demand
Baptized at the altar of samba
Mangueira, I have blessed my flag
I knocked three times on the wood
To achieve victory
In the chest, amulet, rue, and guinea hen
To prove that my people never lose faith
The candle lit to illuminate the path
A wish at the altar, or in the gongá
I will celebrate with divine protection
In a sky of stars adorned with balloons
Green and pink is the tone of my devotion
It has become a religion
The mantle to protect, Mother guiding me
Help me, my Padim wherever I go
I offer to the Queen of the Sea
Inaê, Marabô, Janaína
The mantle to protect, Mother guiding me
Help me, my Padim wherever I go
I offer to the Queen of the Sea
Inaê, Marabô, Janaína
The gates of heaven opened, it rained in the field
In a ribbon bow, the girl asked for communion
Candy, coconut sweet, and guaraná for the Erê
My patron saint will always intercede
Shine, I have a warrior to defend me
I set the point for my orixá in the yard
Through the woods, I will surround myself, a sorcerer
Honey, marafo, and abô
Only with the help of the saint will I confirm my worth
The hill in prayer, crying out in one voice
I am the First Station, pray for us!
