Maria Vai Com As Outras

Maria was a good girl
For the group from Gantois
She was Maria goes with the others
Maria of sewing, Maria of marrying

But what no one knew
Is that she had a secret
Besides sewing, besides praying
She was also Maria of sinning

Tumba ê caboclo
Tumba here and there
Tumba ê warrior
Tumba here and there
Tumba ê my father
Tumba here and there
Don't leave me alone
Tumba here and there

Maria who didn't go with the others
Maria who didn't go to the sea
On February second
Maria didn't play at Iemanjá's party

She didn't throw scented water
Nor flowers for her Orixá
Iemanjá took and carried
Maria's young man to the sea

Tumba ê caboclo
Tumba here and there
Tumba ê warrior
Tumba here and there
Tumba Iemanjá
Tumba here and there
Don't leave me alone
Tumba here and there

To this day people still talk
about the circles at Gantois
How sad it was to see Maria
in the room where she went
to manifest herself

People still admire
her non-stop spinning
Maria spun! They let her spin
And the group didn't stop singing:

Tumba ê caboclo
Tumba here and there
Tumba ê warrior
Tumba here and there
Tumba ê my father
Tumba here and there
Don't leave me alone
Tumba here and there
