Lyrics
Se me andam a falar
Na liberdade
Isso cheira bem
Cheira pimenta
Palavra que me arde
Dentro da boca
Língua que faísca
Como um machado
Machado de dois gumes que é igual pros dois lados
Bate o machado que é igual pros dois lados
Afoxoque ê
Afoxoque ê
Afoxoque
Quê, quê, quê?
Afoxoque
Quê, quê, quê?
E o que me dá força
É a palavra do bem que sai da boca
Palavra de quem tem língua solta
Faz valer nesse canto
Cada gota de sangue
Vou lá no mar, vou no mangue
Por cada gota de sangue
Vou lá no mar, vou no mangue
Por cada gota de sangue
Vou beber do mé
Vou dormir no mar
Vou comer do amor
Vou cantar afoxé
Vou bater meu pé
Pra meu patuá
Me proteger nessa terra
Vou lá no mar, vou no mangue
Por cada gota de sangue
Vou lá no mar, vou no mangue
Por cada gota de sangue
Afoxoque ê
Afoxoque ê
Afoxoque
Quê, quê, quê?
Afoxoque
Quê, quê, quê?
Lyrics translation
If they talk to me
In freedom
That smells good.
Smells like pepper
Word that burns me
Inside the mouth
Tongue that spark
Like an ax
Double-edged ax that is equal pros two sides
Hit the ax that is equal pros two sides
Afoxoque ê
Afoxoque ê
Afoxoque
What, what, what?
Afoxoque
What, what, what?
And what gives me strength
It is the word of good that comes out of the mouth
Word of one who has a loose tongue
Makes it count in that corner
Every drop of blood
I'm going in the sea, I'm going in the mangrove
For every drop of blood
I'm going in the sea, I'm going in the mangrove
For every drop of blood
I'm going to drink from me
I'll sleep in the sea
I'll eat of love
I'll sing afoxé
I'll hit my foot
For my patuá
Protect me in this land
I'm going in the sea, I'm going in the mangrove
For every drop of blood
I'm going in the sea, I'm going in the mangrove
For every drop of blood
Afoxoque ê
Afoxoque ê
Afoxoque
What, what, what?
Afoxoque
What, what, what?
