Ivan Lins
O mestre bandoleiro invade a cidade
Pega da espada e muda o rumo da manhã
E o povo corre pra igreja
Pra se esconder do mal
Os santos milagreiros, mulheres e homens
Bebiam juntos o vinho e repartiam o pão
Era a folia, era o milagre
Do vinagre e sal
O mestre bandoleiro deixando a cidade
Quebra a espada e muda o rumo da manhã
Cinzenta e fatal.
Imortal
Os santos e as pessoas invadem a cidade
Tocando sinos, cantando hinos de procissão
Era a folia, era a alegria
Era um carnaval
Na mesma taça, o sangue e o vinho da igreja
A água benta, a cerveja e o suor
A mesma dança, uma vingança
Um negro ritual
O povo sem cerveja, os santos sem milagres
A igreja só e não muda o rumo da manhã
Virgem Santa!
Quanta solidão!
Perdição!
The master bandit invades the city
He takes the sword and changes the morning's course
And the people run to church
To hide from the evil
The miracle-working saints, women and men
They drank the wine together and broke the bread
It was the folia, it was the miracle
From vinegar and salt
The master bandit leaving the city
He breaks the sword and changes the morning's course
Gray and fatal.
Immortal
The saints and the people invade the city
Ringing bells, singing procession hymns
It was the folia, it was the joy
It was a carnival
In the same cup, the blood and the church wine
Holy water, beer and sweat
The same dance, a revenge
A black ritual
The people without beer, the saints without miracles
The church alone and does not change the course of the morning
Holy Virgin!
How lonely!
Doom!
