Estatuinha(original) |
| Se a mão livre do negro |
| Tocar na argila |
| O que é que vai nascer? |
| Vai nascer pote pra gente beber |
| Nasce panela pra gente comer |
| Nasce vasilha, nasce parede |
| Nasce estatuinha bonita de se ver |
| Nasce vasilha, nasce parede |
| Nasce estatuinha bonita de se ver! |
| Se a mão livre do negro |
| Tocar na onça |
| O que é que vai nascer? |
| Vai nascer pele pra cobrir nossas vergonhas |
| Nasce tapete pra cobrir o nosso chão |
| Nasce caminha pra se ter nossa Ialê |
| E atabaque pra se ter onde bater |
| Nasce caminha pra se ter nossa Ialê |
| E atabaque pra se ter onde bater! |
| Se a mão livre do negro |
| Tocar na palmeira |
| O que é que vai nascer? |
| Nasce choupana pra gente morar |
| E nasce rêde pra gente se embalar |
| Nascem as esteira pra gente deitar |
| Nascem os abano pra gente se abanar |
| Nascem as esteira pra gente deitar |
| Nascem os abano pra gente se abanar |
| Pra gente abanar |
| Pra gente abanar |
| É, pra gente abanar |
| Pra gente abanar |
| É, pra gente abanar |
| Pra gente abanar! |
| (translation) |
| If the black's free hand |
| touch the clay |
| What will be born? |
| A pot will be born for us to drink |
| Pot is born for us to eat |
| A vessel is born, a wall is born |
| A beautiful statue is born to see |
| A vessel is born, a wall is born |
| A beautiful statue to be seen is born! |
| If the black's free hand |
| touch the jaguar |
| What will be born? |
| Skin will be born to cover our shame |
| A rug is born to cover our floor |
| Born walks to have our Ialê |
| And atabaque to have somewhere to hit |
| Born walks to have our Ialê |
| And atabaque to have somewhere to hit! |
| If the black's free hand |
| touch the palm tree |
| What will be born? |
| A hut is born for us to live in |
| And a network is born for us to pack |
| The mat is born for us to lie on |
| The fans are born for us to fan ourselves |
| The mat is born for us to lie on |
| The fans are born for us to fan ourselves |
| for us to fan |
| for us to fan |
| Yeah, for us to fan |
| for us to fan |
| Yeah, for us to fan |
| For us to fan! |
