Samba-Enredo 2024 - Maracatu, Bendito é o Seu Rito

I feel the energy in the air
My heart racing
My blood runs through my veins
Kaô Xangô, nagô nation
A chant of faith echoed
Who is coming, the lady
Clear the way for my banner to pass
Many pains in Recife shining
In beautiful embroideries, it's baque virado
Dona Santa, hey, born from this land
The inspiration of a new world
Represents the joy of my people

Hail the king, hail the queen
And the lady of the palace, Kalunga in hand
Come see the duke, the duchess
It's the royalty of our homeland

Illuminate the moon, illuminate
Silence the drums of the night
Remembering the lash
And in the lit flame Oyá
Eparrei Oyá, the link between Orum Ayê
Eparrei Oyá, the light that comes from dawn

Eeee, in the swing of the xequerê
Let the alfaia and ganzá play

My maracatu nation Imperatriz
The strength of the drum, my root
In this swing, Paulicéia has gonguê
Beat the drum, I want to see
