English Translation

Do submundo das profundezas

From the underworld depths

Velas negras

Black sails


Sudários da escuridão

Shrouds of darkness

Flutua no bojo sombrio

Floats in the dark hull

Mastros de ossos cortam os ventos e a névoa

Masts of bones cut through the winds and mist

A barca fantasma navega a assombrar

The ghostly boat sails to haunt


Faróis, vitrais enigmáticos, lampejam ao luar

Beacons, enigmatic stained glass, flicker in the moonlight

Banzeiros naufragam embarcações

Rough waters wreck vessels

A boiuna, o enigma

The boiuna, the enigma

O mistério da noite virá encantar

The mystery of the night will come to enchant


Vem no remanso soturno nos aningais

It comes in the murky calm of the marshes

A fera das águas rasteja

The water beast slithers

Seus olhos de fogo encandeiam na escuridão

Its fiery eyes blaze in the darkness

A dona da noite virá

The lady of the night will come


Escamas de sucuriju, fogo no ar

Scales of the sucuriju, fire in the air

Avança sobre os igapós, a devorar

Advances over the flooded forests, to devour

Emerge a anaconda boiaçu

Emerges the giant anaconda

A dama das águas

The lady of the waters


Boiuna! Emerge das águas

Boiuna! Emerges from the waters

Boiuna! Ceifadora de almas

Boiuna! Reaper of souls

Anaconda, cobra grande, boiuna sucuriju

Anaconda, great snake, boiuna sucuriju
