Raízes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A avó da mãe da Léa já dançava,
Toda escrava no passado é princesa nos cordões
A Mulata Cheirosa tem espírito guerreiro,
Seu folclore verdadeiro atravessa gerações
O negro pôs na dança esperança de vencer
E o índio inocente simplesmente quis viver
Herdei de todos um tanto:
Cultura, arte, saber,
Beleza, sorte, alegria
E bem querer
Ao navio do estrangeiro,
Catraieiro me levou
Mostrei minhas cuias bordadas
E o galego se encantou
Sei tecer belos balaios,
Sei tirar bom tucupi,
Faço cheiro-de-garrafa
E puçangas para ti
Sou cabocla, índia, mulata,
Tenho orgulho e tradição
Carrego as minhas raízes
Bem dentro do coração
