Cabo, Meu Pai
Zeca Pagodinho
Cabo, My Dad
Dad told me that the tradition is lantern
It comes from the ancestor, it is modern
Much more than modern
And there it is my heart that rules
In darkness is the most eternal light
The most powerful all
He also told me
With that proud way
That samba is more than beautiful
When someone pulls the wool over your eyes
It's the ripple that turns the sea into a furious sea
Mysterious Neptune the treasure of the caves
The oath is for those who pray
Prayer is for those who swear
The soul forever belongs to the creator
Tide changes with moonlight
The future is for those who remember
If that's what father taught
Cable
Cabô, my father, cabô, oh
Cabô, my father, cabô
