umbertino Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Awesome song imho...I love this version Composed by Vinicius De Moraes-RIP https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bebel_Gilberto It's better to be happy than to be sad Joy is the best thing that exists It's like the light inside the heart. However, for writing a beautiful samba, it is required a lot of sadness otherwise you can't do it. Writing a samba is not telling a joke And those who write sambas like these aren't worth it The good samba is a kind of prayer Because samba is the sadness that moves you And the sadness always hopes One day not being sad anymore. Add some love to a pace And you shall see that nobody in the world can beat The beauty contained in a samba Because the samba was born there in Bahia And if today it's white regarding its poetry It's too black in its heart.

umbertino Posted October 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Aganju - Orisha (African - Catholic Sincretism) Deity In Salvador da Bahia, the black heart of Brazil (almost 90% are black and mulatto) there's the Dique do Tororo' aka the lake of Orishas...I saw it....Interesting indeed https://www.tripadvisor.com/LocationPhotoDirectLink-g303272-d312306-i36443884-Dique_de_Tororo-Salvador_State_of_Bahia.html Aganju I waited your image to magnify in the moonlight. I saw a comfortable chair and sat I tasted your love, and fell in love with it or I crossed your way and got stuck on you I stayed at the mist and caught a cold I liked you, you hit my heart/me Devastated my heart, made me hot You ripped my clothes off and I liked it And you swore me words of God Aganjú Aganjú Aganjú The one, who well knows to carry out the toil well knows how hard it is to work for earning the bread and to bring home the supply to live I found the question when outdoors I felt totally in abandon I will pray for never losing this structure you are.
