Oh Mamãe

I'll talk to my mother
My God, what do I do?
I fell in love with capoeira
I don't even know how it happened

But she is my life
And it's my way of being
And when I'm in capoeira
I don't want to do anything else

My mother answered me
Be what you want
In destiny, God is in charge
It’s not how we want it
I'm leaving, I'm leaving

I'm leaving for Bahia
Which is the land of capoeira
I will move on with my life

Oh mommy, rock me, mommy
Hug me, mommy
Take care of me

Oh mommy, rock me, mommy
Hug me, mommy
Take care of me
