Salve o Mar
Sabrina Malheiros
Save the Sea
Go, my Saint Savior
For the people of color
The raft has set sail
My Lord of Bonfim
Don’t let me go without
Our daily bread
Out in the distant blue, the procession
Moves toward the horizon
Until the day breaks
Way out there in the early morning
Mother of the waters comes to bless
Our Mission, Save the Sea
The sun, the rain, Odoya
Black and white in the sea
Day and night on the crossing
Strong winds blowing
I pull the net from the sea
I give thanks for such a bountiful day
Out in the distant blue, the procession
Moves toward the horizon
Until the day breaks
Way out there in the early morning
Mother of the waters comes to bless
Our Mission, Save the Sea
