Red Roots

Oom, oomOom, oom
Ooh, ooh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, ooh, ooh

O vento trazThe wind brings
Uma dança esquecidaA forgotten dance
Os tambores tocamDrums are playing
Não é por acasoNot by chance

Eu fecho os olhosI close my eyes
Sinto a batidaI feel the beat
A terra ainda fluiEarth still flows
O mesmo calor de sempreThe same old heat

Umbala obomvuUmbala obomvu
Na minha mãoIn my hand

Umbala obomvuUmbala obomvu
Na terraIn the land

Rostos vermelhosRed faces
Ao redor do fogoAround the fire
Corações em transeHearts in trance
Corpos transpiramBodies transpire

Meus pés varremMy feet sweep
Meus braços balançamMy arms sway
A poeira sobeDust rises
E depois flutuaThen floats away
