Ponto de Ogum - Ogum Menino
Juliana D Passos
Point of Ogum - Ogum Boy
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá! Oyá, mom look at me
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá! Oyá, mom look at me
Oyá! Oyá!
When Ogum went to war
He asked for Oyá
Oyá, mom look at me
Ogum Boy arrived in the cavalry
He was an orderly of the Virgin Mary
His fame ran through fields and barracks
How can a boy
Know more than the colonels
The revolt came from soldier to captain
Seven months, seven days
Jorge stayed in prison
Jorge made his prayer and supplication
Asking the Virgin Mary
To give him protection
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá! Oyá, mom look at me
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá! Oyá, mom look at me
Oyá! Oyá!
Jorge was condemned
Dragged through the streets
In a city square
He had his neck cut
Jorge said: My mother, look after me
Take my body and my soul
To the endless infinity
The colonels prayed and asked for forgiveness
The body disappeared
In the middle of the crowd
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá! Oyá, mom look at me
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá! Oyá, mom look at me
Oyá! Oyá!
Today Jorge is a saint
He is strong Ogum warrior
Son of the Virgin Mary
Hunter, he is the Orixá
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá! Oyá, mom look at me
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá!
Oyá! Oyá! Oyá, mom look at me
Oyá! Oyá!
