Trago de lá comigo
A força de um povo
Da cidade
Salvador

Vou lá, jogar capoeira de Angola
Vou lá, mostrar capoeira de Angola

Força que tem la na terra,
Chamada Bahia,
Esta força,
Sempre estar

Vou lá, jogar capoeira de Angola
Vou lá, mostrar capoeira de Angola

Subo la no Bonfim,
Para pedir a benção a nosso senhor,
Desço com muita paz,
Sentindo alegria e muito amor
Para dizer para esse povo,
Dançar, gingar e lutar

Vou lá, jogar capoeira de Angola
Vou lá, mostrar capoeira de Angola

I bring it back with me
The strength of a people
From the city
Salvador

I'm going to play capoeira de Angola
I'm going there to show capoeira de Angola

The strength of the land,
called Bahia,
This force,
Will always be there

I'm going to play capoeira de Angola
I'm going there to show capoeira de Angola

I'll go up to Bonfim
To ask our Lord for his blessing,
I come down with a lot of peace,
Feeling joy and love
To tell these people
Dancing, swinging and fighting

I'm going to play capoeira de Angola
I'm going to show capoeira de Angola

Jolly old Saint Nicholas,
Lean your ear this way,
Don't you tell a single soul,
What I'm going to say,
Christmas Eve is coming soon,
Now you dear old man,
Whisper what you'll bring to me,
Tell me if you can.

When the clock is striking twelve,
When I'm fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad and black,
With your pack you'll creep,
All the stockings you will find,
Hanging in a row,
Mine will be the shortest one,
You'll be sure to know.

Jolly old Saint Nicholas,
Lean your ear this way,
Don't you tell a single soul,
What I'm going to say.

Christmas Eve is coming soon,
Now you dear old man,
Whisper what you'll bring for me,
Tell me if you can.

Whisper what you'll bring for me,
Tell me if you can.

Whisper what you'll bring for me,
Tell me if you can.
