Nós negros
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.
Fomos do tronco, da chicote
Da senzala
Da luta e liberdade
Das cantigas tristes e saudade
Dos cantos gemidos ou calados
Fomos meninos principes
Princesas
Reis e rainhas de cor
Coragem
Fomos feitos cativos de corpo
Um cálice amargo
Fomos à sombra da morte
Condescendentes talvez
Fomos dos negreiros e cafezais
Caminhos, quilombos
Fomos Palmares
Mas somos mais
Somos livres
De alma
Do Soul
Somos Mandela, Zumbi
Jazz e blues
Somos d'Africa, do gueto
De garra, de orgulho
E marfim
Somos Cruz e Sousa
Poesia pungente. Luther King,
O Reggae, o Rap , Capoeira
Somos sim
Somos sim
Diáspora
Miscigenação
Dias agora
Diz agora; quem ainda não se "pintou"?
