Iemanjá Amor do Mar

Olodum Olodum

Iemanjá Love of the Sea

The old fisherman follows his course to the sea
And hears the mermaid's song in the full moon
Iemanjá, your tears inspire me
Left your love to never return
Turned into a river of tears
And in the mother's womb, bore his children
Suddenly born, Oxumaré, Xangô
And in the sea flower already emerged
Dressed in blue just to smile at me
And the fisherman brother asks her to guide
So, why live and not die in the sea?

Olodum, Olodum
Call me love
Call me love
Of the sea

Atlantis existed in the center of the sea
I know that the sea is the path to everywhere
Plato, the great philosopher
But everything that happened, he described
All the intelligence that the people had
Riches and luxuries existed there
But where there is man, there is ambition
And the great Zeus, angry to see it
Sending water and fire, he devastated it
