Guinea Fig
GUINEA FIG (Reginaldo Bessa and Nei Lopes)
Who avenges me from the spell is the guinea fig
but the faith of my axé I won't say who it is
I am of faith, head made
Axê, axé
In the peji of candomblé
Axê, axé
who can't handle the spell
Axê, axé
doesn't drum the opanijé
Who avenges me from the spell is the guinea fig
but the faith of my axé I won't say who it is
Strong wave doesn't knock down
axê, axé
nor hurt those who have faith
axê, axé
I go to the waters of my saint
axê, axé
in the flood of the tide
Who avenges me from the spell is the guinea fig
but the faith of my axé I won't say who it is
From Bahia they sent me
axê, axé
my guinea fig
axê, axé
with the blessings of Caymmi
axê, axé
Jorge Amado and Caribé
