The Camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon

Caetano Veloso

As Camélias do Quilombo do Leblon

As camélias do quilombo do Leblon
As camélias do quilombo do Leblon
As camélias do quilombo do Leblon
As camélias

As camélias do quilombo do Leblon
As camélias do quilombo do Leblon
As camélias do quilombo do Leblon
Nas lapelas

Vimos as tristes colinas logo ao sul de Hebron
Rimos com as doces meninas sem sair do tom
O que fazer
Chegando aqui?
As camélias do Quilombo do Leblon
Brandir

Somos a Guarda Negra da Redentora
Somos a Guarda Negra da Redentora

As camélias da Segunda Abolição
As camélias da Segunda Abolição
As camélias da Segunda Abolição
As camélias

As camélias da segunda abolição
As camélias da segunda abolição
As camélias da segunda abolição
Cadê elas?

Somos assim, capoeiras das ruas do rio
será sem fim o sofrer do povo do Brasil
Nele, em mim, vive o refrão
As camélias da segunda abolição virão

The Camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon

The camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon
The camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon
The camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon
The camellias

The camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon
The camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon
The camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon
On the lapels

We saw the sad hills just south of Hebron
We laughed with the sweet girls, staying in tune
What to do
Arriving here?
The camellias of the Quilombo of Leblon
Wield

We are the Black Guard of the Redeemer
We are the Black Guard of the Redeemer

The camellias of the Second Abolition
The camellias of the Second Abolition
The camellias of the Second Abolition
The camellias

The camellias of the Second Abolition
The camellias of the Second Abolition
The camellias of the Second Abolition
Where are they?

We are like this, capoeiras from the streets of Rio
Will the suffering of the people of Brazil never end?
In it, in me, lives the refrain
The camellias of the Second Abolition will come
