A Caminho de Casa

I follow like a hawk
I fly over the rocks
Whoever spots me from the ground
Will continue the journey with good luck
And the blessing of Yemanja

When I gained wings and left
I got lost from home
But by learning to fly alone
I found my path illuminated by rays of Iansa

Go, fisherman, take your boat and my pain
To the high seas and leave it there
May Oxala bring me love

And so I go in peace
Flying after my dreams
And I will continue until I touch
The feet of God

I will return, let them know
That I am already
On the way home
I will return, I am a bird learning to fly...
