Reggae Dos Faraós
Olodum
Reggae Of The Pharaohs
Thebes Necropolis
End of a dynasty
A new empire arose
And Olodum brings Egypt to Bahia
From Amenhotep IV
To the divine Akhenaten
Where the empire reigned
The youth of Tutankhamun
The reflection of the Sun, the Sun, the Sun
Shines in Olodumare
Who in the middle of the desert
Gazed upon the Sphinx of Giza
Where is Salvador?
There, there, there, there, there
What's up?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the Afro Olodum
Singing of Egypt's pharaohs
Where's my Pelourinho?
There, there, there, there, there
How do you say it?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the Afro Olodum
Singing of Egypt's pharaohs
Leave it with me, huh?
Nature created, created, created
The Sahara Desert
And the divine hand
The Saqqara Pyramid
In Egypt, the Nile is
Its main river
And Khafre built
The universal Sphinx
Definitively
Menes unified
And the Hieroglyph
Was deciphered by Champollion
Where is my Brazil?
There, there, there, there, there
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the Afro Olodum
That sings of Egypt's pharaohs
Where is Salvador?
There, there, there, there, there
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the Afro Olodum
That sings of Egypt's pharaohs
Leave it with me, huh?
Ramses II, II, II
Vanity and greatness
Marked the climax
Of splendor and wealth
Two men disputed
The crown of the nation
And the evil Seth defeated
Plotted the betrayal
Definitively
Menes unified
And the Hieroglyph
Was deciphered by Champollion
Where is Salvador?
There, there, there, there, there
How do you say?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the Afro Olodum
That sings of Egypt's pharaohs
Where is my Brazil?
There, there, there, there, there
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the Afro Olodum
That sings of Egypt's pharaohs
