Minha Origem
Ilê Aiyê
My Origin
If you ask me
Where I come from
I’m of African descent
I am, and I’m proud to say I am
And my law? It’s good
It’s one of tenderness, peace, and prayer
To the rhythm I go, I go
Dancing with emotion
The black dance
Is a legal dance
The black folks move their shoulders
The black folks move their feet
