When I am not able…
to go to the Sapucai
When my legs…
can not bear…
to carry my body…
to where my samba goes
Then, my anel de bamba,…
I will give it to someone who deserves to use
I will stay
in the midst of the people, watching
my school
to lose or win
one more carnival
Before I say goodbye
I leave with the young sambista
my last wish
Do not let the samba die
Do not let the samba end
The hill was made of samba
Samba, samba for us to dance
