Fe
Samba da Opinião Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴



Eu tenho fe
Pai Ogum e m vida
Eu tenho fe
De Exu a Oxala
E quem me guia
Na noite e no dia
Eu tenho fe
Nos Orixas
Oxossi o cacador
O dono da mata
Eparrei Oya a Deusa do raio chegou
Eu vi
Mamae Oxum na cachoeira
Ho batam palmas
Pra coroa de Xango
Tempo macura dele
Atoto Obaluaiye
Saluba Nana
Arroboboi Oxumare
Eu vou jogar




Flores no mar
Pra saudar Iemanja
