Demarcação Já!

Since after more than five centuries
And countless cycles of ethnogenocide
The indigenous people live, amidst a thousand plagues
Having been killed and reborn

Just like the Kadiwéu and the Panará

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

Since various peoples have been under attack
Without seeing their land demarcated
Starting with the first in Brazil
That the white man invaded upon arrival
The Tupinambá's

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

Since, just like the Trans-Amazonian Highway works
When the military called them savages
Today a project of other grand works
Running alongside agricultural expansion
Leads to indigenous genocide, see the Kaiowá people

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

Since there is much more oversized latifundium
Than indigenous land throughout the country;
And since the latifundium is only monoculture
While the Indigenous Territory is polyfauna and multiflora

Ah!

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

One mechanizes, chainsaws, transgenizes
And the other worships and deifies nature
The indigenous person loves it for being sacred
And the ruralist, for the money it brings;

Hum, bah!

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

Since by retrospect only the autóc
Tone remains compact and very intact
And does not impact, does not infect, and
Connects and has a pact with the forest

Without which the water will run out

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

So that they do not leave indigenous lands
Nor conservation units
Open like cancerous sores
Due to the effects of mining
And hydroelectric plants in the belly of the Amazon, in Rondônia, in Pará

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

Since just like the Black and the homosexual
The indigenous person is everything that is not good, as desired
By those who want to take everything that remains
Their territory, inheritance from their ancestors

And since what they want is what is already theirs

Land demarcation, okay?
Land demarcation now!

For the indigenous person to have the application of the Statute
That borders their corner like a stronghold
And shields them against the bad and brutal white man
Who stole what was theirs

Just as it happened, from Pampa to Amapá

Land demarcation there!
Land demarcation now!

Since this is how certain white people act
Calling them savages, if they react
And non-Indians, if they do not even pretend to react
To violence and violation
Of their rights, from Humaitá to Jaraguá

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

Because the indigenous person can have an iPad, freezer, TV, pickup truck, speedboat
And still be indigenous
And still want and have in their village
Gourd, canoe, headdress, bow, maraca

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

So that the indigenous person is not an indigent
An alcoholic, a slave, or exiled
Or camped on the side of a road
Or confined and ultimately a suicide
Already old or young or worse, a child

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

So we do not see as natural
Their sociocultural death
In other words, so we empathize
And find beautiful and absolute
Their contribution from Tupi to Tucupi, from Guarani to Guaraná

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

For Guarani and Makuxis and Pataxós
Are within us, and we are them, for the indigenous person is us
Is who we carry within us, in fact
We are namesakes of the Kaiapós and Kaiowás

Namesake

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

So we do not lose with whom to learn
To be moved by looking and seeing
The trees, the birds and rivers
The rain, the rock, the night, the sun, the macaw
And the passion fruit flower

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

For respect and the right
To difference and diversity
Of each ethnicity, each minority
Of each species in the community
Of living beings that still exist on Earth

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

For a better world or, at least
Some world to come; for a better future or, God willing, some future
For them and for us, for everyone
Who is on this boat together

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

Since after the swarm of Ibirapueras
And Maracanãs of forest fall to the ground
The Yanomami will truly die
But their shamans will avenge their people
And the sky will fall upon humanity

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

Since, for this reason, the Krenak's plan concludes
To sing, dance, to suspend the sky
And indigenous without land is everyone without the Earth
It is all civilization adrift
To the godforsaken

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

No more stalling at the Palace table
No more fogging in the Justice drawer
No more delay or procrastination in the process
No regression or dispute in Congress
No gibberish, no blah blah blah!

Land demarcation now!
Land demarcation now!

So that in the lands finally demarcated
Or self-demarcated by the indigenous people
Neither loggers, miners, farmers
Nor their bosses, henchmen, or gunmen
Militias or police confront them

Vrá!

Land demarcation yesterday!
Land demarcation now!

And let the indigenous person, let the indigenous person, let the indigenous people be there
