White lady gone to the Southern sea
|
Why do you appear so suddenly
|
We want to honor your melody
|
With a little bitty boat set out on the sea
|
Iemanja, Iemanja, Iemanja
|
|
I dream of days spent in Salvador
|
With my little darling forever more
|
Taking a walk along the shore
|
Feels like heaven's an open door
|
Iemanja, Iemanja
|
|
If I were to offer a plain perfume
|
And if I were to honor the shining moon
|
As she sits so lonely upon the dune
|
Madre d'agua, See you soon
|
|
E'na lahia Iemanja, E'laiana Iemanja
|
E'Iemanja, E'Iemanja
|
|
I wanted to stay
|
I gotta go but I'm coming back one day
|
