100 Anos de Liberdade - Realidade Ou Ilusão?

Will it be...
That freedom has already dawned
Or if it was all an illusion
Will it be...
That the long-awaited Golden Law
Signed so long ago
Was not the end of slavery
Today within reality
Where is the freedom
Where is it that no one saw

Young man...
Don't forget that the black man also built
The riches of our Brazil

Ask the creator
Who painted this watercolor
Free from the whip of the slave quarters
Trapped in the misery of the favela

I dreamed...
That Zumbi of Palmares returned
The sadness of the black man ended
It was a new redemption

Lord..
Here is the struggle of good against evil
That shed so much blood
Against racial prejudice

The black man sambas
Black man plays capoeira
He is the king in the green and pink of Mangueira
