Era um domingo de alegria
🇧🇷 Portuguese
Era um domingo de alegria
Tocava Angola e Santa Maria
E foi assim que começou animado,
Com muitos alunos e também convidados
Dois capoeiras rezavam agachados
Pedindo a Deus a sua proteção
Rodou a meia-lua, levou uma rasteira
Assim jogavam os dois capoeiras
Jogaram tanto que acabaram no chão
Com os dois sorrindo e apertando a mão
Assim procede quem é capoeira
Joga bonito e não comete asneira

It was a Sunday of joy,
Angola and Santa Maria were being played.
And that is how it started, full of energy,
With many students and also guests.
Two capoeiristas prayed while crouching,
Asking God for His protection.
He spun a half-moon kick, and got swept,
That is how the two capoeiristas played.
They played so much that they ended up on the ground,
With both of them smiling and shaking hands.
This is how a true capoeirista acts,
They play beautifully and do not do anything foolish.
