This electrifying samba
Is to remember some wonderful people
In the history of our samba
Dona Clementina de Jesus,
And Dona Ivone Lara among others
So many names in our history...
We're singing on the edge...
We're dancing close to the fire
Cartola, Mestre Marçal, Carlos Cachaça, senhor Nelson Cavaquinho, Dona Neuma .
