Canto de Iemanjá
Vinicius de Moraes
Song of Yemanja
Yemanja, Yemanja
Yemanja is Lady Janaína who comes
Yemanja, Yemanja
Yemanja is a lot of sadness that comes
It comes from the moon in the sky
It comes from the moon
In the sea covered with flowers, my dear
From Yemanja
From Yemanja singing love
And admiring itself
In the sad moon in the sky, my dear
Sad in the sea
If you want to love
If you want love
Come with me to Salvador
To listen to Yemanja
Singing, in the ebbing tide
And in the flowing tide
From the end, further from the end, from the sea
Much further
Much further
Than the end of the sea
Much further
