Full lyrics
Corre e vai dizer
Que amanheceu o dia
Vai no trem das cores levando alegria
Rompendo os costumes
Celebrando a vida
Pra essas santas batuqueiras
Toda santa avisa
Nesse arrasta-pé que é toda cor
Tem homem e mulher pra tocar tambor
O coco vibrando dança toque e magia
Frevo na ladeira baque solto gira
Esses batuqueiros agem bem na quia
Cantam no terreiro toda essa folia
Translation
Run and go tell
That the day has dawned
Go on the train of colors bringing joy
Breaking customs
Celebrating life
For these holy drummers
Every saint notifies
In this arrasta-pé that is all color
There are men and women to play the drum
The coco vibrating dances with its beat and magic
Frevo on the slope loose beat spins
These drummers act well in the lead
They sing in the terreiro all this revelry
