Raiz de Todo Bem
Saulo Fernandes
Root of All Good
Salvador, Bahia
African territory
I'm Bahian, it's you, it's us
One voice, one drum
Hey
Can't you see we're from the Northeast?
Stubborn person
Get out of there, drummer, who was your master?
Capoeira
Plant yourself
Here comes the sweep, downhill foot
I need faith in the Lord of Bonfim
For me, for you, for me
A leather sandal
A tunic, a blessing
Plus fifty cents of sound
(Turn up the volume!)
Africa, yo, yo
Salvador, my love, the root
Of all good, of so much faith
Of the Candomblé chant
Africa, yo, yo
Salvador, my love, the root
Of all good, of so much faith
Of the Candomblé chant

Of all good, of so much faith
Of the Candomblé chant

Salvador, my love, the root
Of all good, of so much faith
Of the Candomblé chant, oh
