Lyrics
Nossa cantoria
Nosso coração
Nosso bloco, nossa folia
Contra solidão
Nossa teimosia
Nossa louvação
Nosso fogo, nossa magia
Contra escuridão
Somos a arueira
Madeira dura de se cortar
Mesmo depois de morta, ela brota
Só pra desafiar
Somos a correnteza
Que começa num gotejar
Mesmo que se represe, ela segue
E vai transbordar o mar
Lyrics translation
Our singing
Our heart
Our block, our revelry
Against loneliness
Our stubbornness
Our praise
Our fire, our magic
Against darkness
We are the arueira
Hard wood to cut
Even after dead, it sprouts
Just to challenge
We are the current
That starts in a drip
Even if she represses, she follows
And will overflow the sea
