No balanco do mar
No balanço do mar ioio
No balanço do mar iaia
No balanço do mar ê ê
No balanço do mar
Lá vem o navio negreiro
Trazendo africanos de lá
E aqui em solo brasileiro
Escravos iam se tornar
No porto eu fui vendido
Para o senhor da fazenda
Pra plantar e cortar cana
E trabalhar na moênda
Mas o negro era valente
E tinha alma guerreira
Fugia do cativeiro
Pro meio da capoeira
Vou me embrenhar na mata
As correntes arrebentar
Eu vou voltar pra minha terra
Eu vou no balanço do mar
In the swaying of the sea, yo-yo
In the swaying of the sea iaia
In the sway of the sea, ee ee
In the sway of the sea
Here comes the slave ship.
Bringing Africans from there
And here on Brazilian soil
Slaves were going to become
I was sold at the port.
For the owner of the farm
For planting and harvesting sugarcane.
And to work in the mill.
But the black man was brave.
And he had a warrior's soul.
He was escaping captivity.
Through capoeira
I'm going to venture into the woods.
The chains will break.
I'm going back to my homeland.
I'll go with the sway of the sea.
