Is everybody there?
Raise your hands
Those who’re the children of this soil
Mocidade has arrived to bring the people joy
My heart will race once again
A light shone in the sky, freedom!
My heart overcame fear
What was ice became joy
Hope spreading over the ground
Nature has its mysteries and spells
Rituals, sorceries, gods blessing me
Taken by the light of the guiding star
I go wherever the seed germinates
What I sowed, the world has reaped
A miracle has happened
Life celebrated an ideal
And abundance turned into festival
What I sowed, the world has reaped
A miracle has happened
Life celebrated an ideal
And abundance turned into festival
Isis rites, wine binges
The seed sprouted in Rome
My role was changed, oh Padre Miguel
Today no one will censor me
In the Black Mask ball
Even nobility had to swallow
My Brazil, from North to South I manifest
Wherever I go I draw the crowds
Out of every hundred only one won’t come
I’ll return one day to outer space
and revive my ziriguidum in high spirits
Is everybody there?
Raise your hands
Those who’re the children of this soil
Mocidade has arrived to bring the people joy
My heart will race once again
