| Lyrics: | [Blood From The Bairro]
Bezouro, Moderno, Ezequiel,
Candeeiro, Ceca Preta,
Labareda,
Azulão, Arvoredo, Quina-Quina,
Banananeira, Sabonete, Catingueira,
Limoeiro, Laparina, Mergulhão, Corisco!
Volta Seca, Jararaca, Cajarana, Viriato,
Gitirana, Moita-Brava, Meia Noite, Zabele!
[These are the names of the members of
Lampiao's gang!]
[They were outlaw rebels that would steal from the rich and give to the
poor]
[(like a Brasilian Robin Hood).]
[When they were captured,]
[their heads were
decapitated and displayed in the square of the city of Recife, Pernambuco.]
Quando
degolaram minha cabeça
Passei mais de dois segundos
Vendo meu corpo tremendo
E
não sabia o que fazer
Morrer, viver, morrer, viver
[Translation:]
When they
cut off my head
For more than two seconds
I watch my body shake
And I didn't know
what to do
To die, to live, to die, to live |
