Meu maracatu é da coroa imperial Meu maracatu é da coroa imperial É de Pernambuco Ele é da casa real Ele é É de Pernambuco Ele é Lá de Portugal Tupana, tupana Tupana, tupana Cana Xanae Bei Ei! Na beira, beira-mar! (Meu maracatu é da coroa imperial) Ei! Na beira, beira-mar! (Meu maracatu é da coroa imperial) Ei! Na beira, beira-mar! Capoeira vai pegar Tupana, tupana A lethal bolt pierces the air Like a falling star (young eyes are observing in the darkness) His stare's reflecting fright And scared he's struggling hard To go back Uneasy warders guard The jail on quiet nights (young eyes contemplating somewhere to hide) Mankind will soon learn That the end has come in time Dividing lands, retracing All the borders will colide Revealing ages when the absence Of forgiveness rules our lives Home how I go My badge is wearing out Written on the sand Words to reconcile - unholy wars Forgive us our father For we have sinned Blinded by pride We know not what we do Thy kingdom will be done By holy wars Gloria in excelsis Deo Et in terra pax The battle is over But the war still rages on! Dividing lands, retracing All the borders will colide Revealing ages when the absence Of forgiveness rules our lives Home how I go My badge is wearing out Written on the sand Words to reconcile Home how I go My badge is wearing out Written on the sand Words to reconcile - unholy wars
