Um Dia Na Senzala pten
Quem já foi na senzala um dia Sabe me dizer como e Coro: Moendo cana e, sócando pilao Moendo cana e, sócando pilao Negro era escravizado sóbe a olho do capitão De dia trabalháva Descalco com os pés no chão Coro Negro sófria na senzala Na vista do coronel De dia trabalháva Descalco com os pés no chão Coro Negro sófria na senzala Na vista do coronel Onde olháva da sacada Como um raio vem do cu Coro Mas que vida era aquela Hoje já não existe mais Como era ruim ficar Na mira de um capataz
Who has ever been in the senzala one day Can tell me how it is Chorus: Grinding sugarcane and pounding in the mortar Grinding sugarcane and pounding in the mortar The black man was enslaved Under the overseer's eye By day he worked Barefoot with his feet on the ground Chorus The black man suffered in the senzala In the sight of the colonel By day he worked Barefoot with his feet on the ground Chorus The black man suffered in the senzala In the sight of the colonel Where he looked from the balcony Like lightning coming from the sky Chorus What kind of life was that Today it no longer exists How bad it was to stay In the crosshairs of a taskmaster
