Na praia de Arembepe

Na praia de Arembepe Nao era noite nao era dia Era o clarao da lua cheia Parecendo até magia Bem enfrente da igreja No terreiro beriando o mar O berimbao tocava angola Chamando p’ra vadia Roda di capoeira formou Quando entro a madrugada Era um campo de mandinga Numa noite enluarada De repente no horizonte Um forte clarao se viu Oi o sol vinha raiando Anunciando um novo dia Camarà, galo cantou Ie galo canto camarà

On the beach of Arembepe It wasn’t night it wasn’t day There was the light of the full moon It looked like magic Just in front of the church On the terrain at the sea The berimbau played angola Calling to play A capoeira circle formed At the enter of dawn It was a field of magic On a moonlit night Suddenly at the horizon A bright light appeared O the sun came beaming Announcing a new day Camarà, the cock crowed Ie, the cock crowed, camarà
