Oxóssi / Citação: Ponto de Oxóssi
Mariene de Castro
Oxóssi / Quotation: Oxóssi Point
I saw it rain, I saw lightning
But even so, the sky was blue
Samborê, pemba, it's jurema leaf
Oxóssi reigns from north to south
Oxóssi, son of Yemanja
Divinity of the Ogum clan
It's Ibualama, it's Inlé
That Oxum took to the river and was born Logunedé
His nature is of the Moon
In the Moon, Oxóssi is Odé
Odé, Odé, Odé, Odé
King of Ketu, forest caboclo, Odé, Odé
Odé, Odé, Odé, Odé
King of Ketu, forest caboclo, Odé, Odé
Thursday is his ossé
Axoxó, black beans, shrimp, peanuts
Blue and green, his colors
White lace pants, decorated short skirt
Ojá and silver breastplate
In hand, ofá, iluquerê
Okê, arô, Oxóssi, okê, okê
The jurema is the sacred tree
Okê, arô, Oxóssi, okê, okê
In Bahia it's Saint George
In Rio, it's Saint Sebastian
Oxóssi is the one in charge
In the bands of my heart
Thursday is his ossé
Axoxó, black beans, shrimp, peanuts
Blue and green, his colors
White lace pants, decorated short skirt
Ojá and silver breastplate
In hand, ofá, iluquerê
Okê, arô, Oxóssi, okê, okê
The jurema is the sacred tree
Okê, arô, Oxóssi, okê, okê
In Bahia it's Saint George
In Rio, it's Saint Sebastian
Oxóssi is the one in charge
In the bands of my heart
In Bahia it's Saint George
In Rio, it's Saint Sebastian
Oxóssi is the one in charge
In the bands of my heart
In Bahia it's Saint George
In Rio, it's Saint Sebastian
Oxóssi is the one in charge
In the bands of my heart
In Bahia it's Saint George
In Rio, it's Saint Sebastian
Oxóssi is the one in charge
In the bands of my heart
