Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Subindo morro eu vi (fogo na Ba..bilônia)

Climbing the hill, I saw (fire in Babylon)


Eu já estou cansado (de ver meu povo)

I am already tired (of seeing my people)

Eu já estou cansado (sempre segregado)

I am already tired (always segregated)

Eu já estou cansado (de ser taxado)

I am already tired (of being labeled)

De feio e sujo e pelo santo ofício de alma e impuro

As ugly and dirty and by the holy office of a tainted soul


Igrejas e praças (não pude frequentar)

Churches and squares (I couldn't attend)

De sol a sol (senzala a trabalhar)

From sunrise to sunset (slave quarters to work)

Nem candomblé (nem tambor nem orixás)

Neither candomblé (nor drums nor orixás)

E na calada satisfazer minha sinhá

And in secrecy satisfy my lady


Por isso eu clamo oh! Jah por favor!

That's why I cry out oh! Jah please!

Tira o preconceito nos semeie com amor!

Remove the prejudice and sow us with love!


faz o meu povo virar rasta...

Make my people become Rasta...
