Samba-Enredo 1973 - Legends of Abaeté
Iaiá sent her to Bahia
To Abaeté to see her magic
Her lagoon, her supernatural tale
That Mangueira brings to this carnival
Janaína agô agoiá
Janaína agô agoiá
Samba flows with the strength of Iemanjá
Oh! What a beautiful moonlit night
Oh! What poetry and seduction
White sand, dark water
So much tenderness in the beat and the song
Down in the depths of the lagoon
In her ritual, in her celebration
That's how I saw Iara sing
I saw someone dive
To never return again
