Samba Enredo 1970 - Legends and Mysteries of the Amazon
On this colorful avenue
Portela celebrates its carnival
Legends and mysteries of the Amazon
We sing in this original samba
They say the stars fell in love
And couldn't get married
The Moon, in love, cried so much
That from her tears the sea-river was born
And they say more
Jaçanã, beautiful like a flower
One morning saw her love forbidden
For the brave warrior
Fell in love with her
She was sacrificed by the wrath of the Shaman
And in the Victoria Regia
She transformed
When spring arrived
The season of flowers
There was a festival of loves
It was the tradition of the Amazons
Warrior women
That atmosphere of joy
Only ended at daybreak
Ô skindô lalá
Ô skindô lelê
Look who's coming
It's the Saci Pererê
