Da - lhe, da-lhe Alvinegro

The song "Da-lhe, da-lhe Alvinegro" by Torcida Cearamor is a vibrant and passionate anthem that captures the essence of unwavering support for the Brazilian football team Ceará Sporting Club, often referred to as 'Vovô' (Grandpa) by its fans. The lyrics express a deep commitment to the team, with the fan pledging to be 'Alvinegro' (a term that refers to the team's black and white colors) forever and to never abandon their love for the club. The repetition of 'Dá-lhe, dá-lhe, dá-lhe Alvinegrô' is a chant that translates to 'Go on, go on, go on Alvinegro,' which is a rallying cry to encourage the team to play with determination and spirit.

The song is not just about the sport itself, but also about the community and identity that comes with being a fan. The promise to support the team 'until I die' signifies the lifelong bond between the supporters and the club, showcasing the cultural phenomenon of football fandom in Brazil, where the sport is deeply ingrained in the national identity. The use of 'vamos com raça pelo meu vôvô' further emphasizes the emotional connection, as 'raça' means 'with race' or 'with passion,' indicating the fans' readiness to support their team with all their might.

Torcida Cearamor, the artist behind the song, is not an individual but a group—the organized fanbase of Ceará Sporting Club. Their songs and chants are an integral part of the matchday experience, creating an atmosphere of camaraderie and support that can often influence the performance of the team on the pitch. The song serves as a reminder of the power of collective support in sports and the role of fans in creating a formidable home advantage.
