FIRMED POINT
English
- A capella
- With dance
Obatalá, hail God, hail Oxalá
Hail the militias of the Celestial kingdom
I came from afar, sent from another tent
I came to bring the offering the Mestre sent me to fetch
Odociá, hail the queen Iemanjá
I undid the mironga, then dispatched it in the sea
Point firmed in the corners of this Terreiro
Saravá Ogum, warrior, defend this gongá
I call the presence of the Spirits of light
The messengers in the name of the Holy Cross
And all beings who do charity
And work in truth, I call in the name of Jesus
To help the one who seeks
Making effort, earning to be healed
Here I ask for firmness in the mediums
For there are many mockers wanting to attach themselves
I came to instruct whoever manifests
I only give passage to whoever presents themselves
They must give proof before this Cruzeiro
Whether they are serious and true and came to work
If they come in the light they have nothing to hide
If they have truth, the truth they will speak
But I warn the mystifiers
The inspectors and the creditors are circling you
It is to have love and to pay close attention
Discernment in the hour of acting
Much respect, calm and tranquility
For all mediumship deserves understanding
refrain, sung twicerefrain, sung three or more times
