Nos Braços da Batucada
Arlindo Cruz
In the Arms of the Beat
Nights on end without seeing you
My challenge was to live, missing you
Now it's time to stop suffering
I did nothing to deserve this cruelty
It was when a friend reminded me
That the samba can't stop, no
It's not like a love affair that ends
If I lose in the game of love
The samba is my protector, yeah
It pulls me out of trauma, pain, and sorrow
I'm tired of waiting for you
I found the joy in dreaming
I have no more time to waste
I'm not afraid of anything anymore
How great it is to see the day break
How great it is to see the sun rise
In the arms of the beat
I'm tired of waiting
I'm tired of waiting for you
I found the joy in dreaming
I have no more time to waste
I'm not afraid of anything anymore
How great it is to see the day break
How great it is to see the sun rise
In the arms of the beat
Now it's time to stop suffering
I did nothing to deserve this cruelty
It was when a friend reminded me
That the samba can't stop, no
It's not like a love affair that ends

I'm tired of waiting for you
I found the joy in dreaming

I'm not afraid of anything anymore
How great it is to see the day break
How great it is to see the sun rise
In the arms of the beat
Lalaiá, lalaiá
Laiá, lalaiá, lalaiá
Laiá lalaiá, lalaiá
Laiá, lalaiá, lalaiá
Laiá, lalaiá, lalaiá, la
How great it is to see the day break
How great it is to see the sun rise
In the arms of the beat
