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!
