Beija Flor 2025 - Júlio Assis e Cia

Hey there!
Let’s get it on
Let’s get it on
Hummingbird is your spirit
If I have the story you respect
Let justice be served, it was Laíla the orixá

He shouted from the top of the quarry
Boy's body, soul of an orixá
Xangô came down to see his child
Under the winds of mama Oyá
Armored like the metal of oxê
Forged to make me win
Your orí has magic
In every bead of the necklace
The faith syncretized in my griô
Is a strong trunk muzemba
That marks the point in the chalk
It’s a beam that never bent
From the ibejis to the gypsy magic
Okê caboclo! Sovereign arrow!

Gangazumba hey! Luiz!
Reparation of the hood, my roots
The voice of the silenced voices
Black commander of the low nation

A master, resolute, innovative
The absolute gift in harmony
Left his legacy wherever he went
A blend of street smarts and poetry
Truth is, samba made the pain pass
But this longing stays in my heart
For those who made us an example of community

My elder, from the crossroads to the block
There’s low-key magic
No flame can forge you
Know that everything is already set
For you to be honored
Right next to Saint George
