Full lyrics

Lá vem Eduin descendo a Ribeira!


Quando Eduim desce a Ribeira

Olinda inteira vai ouvir seu afoxé

Cid, Querubim, Cafi, Zuleida

Olinda inteira vai ouvir seu afoxé


O atabaque, o bongô

O agogô, candomblé

Moça bonita

Serás minha mulher


O atabaque, o bongô

O agogô, candomblé

Moça bonita

Serás minha mulher


O atabaque, o bongô

O agogô, candomblé

Moça bonita

Serás minha mulher


O atabaque, o bongô

O agogô, candomblé

Moça bonita

Serás minha mulher


Mas quando o Eduim desce a Ribeira

Olinda inteira vai ouvir seu afoxé

Iris, Querubim, Cafi, Zuleida

Olinda inteira vai ouvir seu afoxé


E quando o Eduim desce a Ribeira

Olinda inteira vai ouvir seu afoxé

Billy, Querubim, Cafi, Zuleida

Olinda inteira vai ouvir seu afoxé


O atatabaque, o bongô

O agogô, Candomblé

Moça bonita

Serás minha mulher


O atabaque, o bongô

O agogô, candomblé

Moça bonita

Serás minha mulher
