Oh areia, oh areia do mar
Oh areia, oh areia

Berimbau tocou
Areia
Eu vou vadiar
Areia
Capoeira Angola
Areia
Na beira do mar
Areia

Oh areia, oh areia do mar
Oh areia, oh areia

Oh saia do meu caminho
Areia
Eu quero passar
Areia
Sou pequeninho
Areia
Filho de Oxalá
Areia

Oh sand, oh sand of the sea
Oh sand, oh sand

Berimbau played
Sand
I’m going to play
Sand
Capoeira Angola
Sand
At the seashore
Sand

Oh sand, oh sand of the sea
Oh sand, oh sand

Oh get out of my way
Sand
I want to pass
Sand
I’m small
Sand
Son of Oxalá
Sand
