Текст и перевод песни Gilberto Gil - Ya Olokum

Ya Olokum

Ribeira, eu peço licença
Pra as águas do mar, Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

São pontos de areia
Os destinos brilhando num só
Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

As águas salgadas
Os homens sujaram o mar, Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

Vamos salvar o dique do tororó
Bahia de todos os santos
Sol e areia, êa, êa, êa

Perpetuar
Aqueles que nos dão
A maré vazia e também a maré cheia

Ribeira, eu peço licença
Pra as águas do mar, Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

São pontos de areia
Os destinos brilhando num só
Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

As águas salgadas
Os homens sujaram o mar, Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

Vamos salvar o dique do tororó
Bahia de todos os santos
Sol e areia, êa, êa, êa

Perpetuar
Aqueles que nos dão
A maré vazia e também a maré cheia

Ya Olokum

Ribeira, I ask permission, my love
For the waters of the sea, Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

Grains of sand they are, darling
Destinies shining as one
Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

The salty waters
Men have soiled the sea, Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

Let's save the dike of Tororó, my dear
Bay of All Saints
Sun and sand, êa, êa, êa

To perpetuate, sweetheart
Those who give us
The low tide and also the high tide

Ribeira, I ask permission, my love

Grains of sand they are, darling
Destinies shining as one
Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

The salty waters
Men have soiled the sea, Olokum
Ye Olokum, Ya Olokum

Let's save the dike of Tororó, my dear
Bay of All Saints
Sun and sand, êa, êa, êa

To perpetuate, sweetheart
Those who give us
The low tide and also the high tide
