Here are the songs we learnt today! Great effort by the new people to sing along! Practice them ya so we can pump more axe for next roda ^^



Zum, zum, zum,
Capoeira mata um!
Zum, zum, zum,
Capoeira mata um!
Onde tem marimbondo
Tem zum, zum, zum
Onde tem marimbondo
Tem zum, zum, zum
O a o a e
Quero vem bater, quero vem cair
O a o a e
Quero vem bater, quero vem cair

Zum, zum, zum,
Capoeira kills one!
Zum, zum, zum,
Capoeira kills one!
Where there is a wasp
There is a zum, zum, zum
Where there is a wasp
There is a zum, zum, zum

Zum, zum, zum, describes both the sound of the berimbau, and the quick movements of the capoeiristas. The chorus responds "where there is a wasp there is a zum, zum, zum." In English we might say "where there is smoke there is fire!" Watch out, if you can hear the sound of the berimbau there is probably a capoeirista nearby.

Saia do mar venha ver venha ver
Sai sai Catarina
Oh Catarina, meu amor

Go, go, Catarina
Go out of the sea and come to see Idalina
Go, go, Catarina
Go out of the sea and come to see, come to see
Go, go, Catarina
Oh Catarina, my love
Go, go, Catarina
Go out of the sea, go out of the sea
Go, go, Catarina
