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! |
