(Blood From The Bairro)



Bezouro, Moderno, Ezequiel,

Candeeiro, Ceca Preta, Labareda,

Azul�£o, Arvoredo, Quina-Quina,

Banananeira, Sabonete, Catingueira,

Limoeiro, Laparina, Mergulh�£o, 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 cabe�§a

Passei mais de dois segundos

Vendo meu corpo tremendo

E n�£o sabia o que fazer

Morrer, viver, morrer, viver



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
