Nação

Dorival Caymmi spoke to Oxum
With Silas I'm in good company
The sky embraces the earth
The river flows into Bahia

Dorival Caymmi spoke to Oxum
With Silas I'm in good company
The sky embraces the earth
The river flows into Bahia

Jeje, my thirst is for the rivers
My color is the rainbow
I'm so hungry
Flower plant, sister of the flag
My fate is green and yellow
Made like a banana tree

Gold covers the emerald mirror
In the splendid cradle the forest in syrup
Soul manger
Labarágua, seven burning falls
Iron snake, Oxumaré
Man and woman in bed

Jeje, your dove wings
Backstraps with honey and palm oil
They are hanging on by a thread
They suffer the beast's breath
The Caramuru Bomber
The rage of Anhanguera

Jeez, your trash mouth
Spits out blood from another hemoptysis
In the mangrove channel
The ash uirapuru calls
Break the dishes, Oxumaré
Dance in your sea of mud
