Point of Black Old Man - My Captivity

Ponto de Preto Velho - Meu Cativeiro

I cry my captivityEu choro meu cativeiro
My captivity, my captivationMeu cativeiro, meu cativerá
I cry my captivityEu choro meu cativeiro
My captivity, my captivationMeu cativeiro, meu cativerá
I cry my captivityEu choro meu cativeiro
My captivity, my captivationMeu cativeiro, meu cativerá
I cry my captivityEu choro meu cativeiro
My captivity, my captivationMeu cativeiro, meu cativerá

In the time of slaveryNo tempo da escravidão
Black Old Man worked a lotPreto Velho muito trabalhou
But had nothing to think aboutMas não tinha o que pensar
Carried problems to the masterLevava problemas para o senhor
But had nothing to think aboutMas não tinha no que pensar
Carried problems to the masterLevava problemas para o senhor

And when the evening cameE quando chegava a tardinha
Black Old Man played the drumPreto Velho batia tambor
And when the evening cameE quando chegava a tardinha
Black Old Man played the drumPreto Velho batia tambor
Then he went to the slave quartersDepois ia para a senzala
Salute Ogum, salute father XangôSaravar Ogum, saravar pai Xangô
Then he went to the slave quartersDepois ia para a senzala
Salute Ogum, salute father XangôSaravar Ogum, saravar pai Xangô

I cry my captivityEu choro meu cativeiro
My captivity, my captivationMeu cativeiro, meu cativerá
I cry my captivityEu choro meu cativeiro
My captivity, my captivationMeu cativeiro, meu cativerá
I cry my captivityEu choro meu cativeiro
My captivity, my captivationMeu cativeiro, meu cativerá
