Ponto de Obaluaê - Povo do Ayê

Silence
My lord is on earth
The sun in the form of Orixá descended in the yard
He shouted his ylá that echoed like death screaming
Sing people of the earth
Hail my father atotô, atotô Obaluaê

Sing people of the earth
Hail my father atotô, atotô Obaluaê

Ogum braided his maryô with the palm leaves
Dancing to the whims of the winds of Oyá
The evils and pains of the world he brings the answer
Secret hidden in the strength of his xaxará.

I spilled popcorn on the ground, prepared his Olubajé
With black and white beads I made my abadá
Ogã resounded on the drum a chant of faith
I saw my Lord cradled and bringing Axé

Ogã resounded on the drum a chant of faith
I saw my Lord cradled and bringing Axé

He is the Lord of diseases, of the consuming fever
The child who comes enchanted in the hands of Nanã
I ask permission from Olorum to say his name
It is Omolu, Obaluaê, my father Xapanã

I ask permission from Olorum to say his name
It is Omolu, Obaluaê, my father Xapanã

Sing people of the earth
Hail my father atotô, atotô Obaluaê

Sing people of the earth
Hail my father atotô, atotô Obaluaê
