Zumbi Rei
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.
General, negro dos palmares
Grande líder dos quilombolas
Lutou e morreu pela defesa
E pela liberdade
Dos seus irmãos
Mas a luta continua irmão
Jamais perderemos a esperança
De cultuar seus deuses negros
Eram os quilombolas
Negros rebeldes dos palmares
Da senzala a casa grande
Éramos tratados como animais
Oprimidos e marginalizados
Mais se o negro parar e pensar
De tudo devemos cultivar
Salve Zumbi Rei Olodum
Grande líder dos quilombolas
Salve Zumbi Rei Olodum
Consciência Negra Olodum
