PRAYER FOR THE WATERS

He lives in the rocky place

There with Oxúm da Cachueira

At the seashore

Giving us firmness

He is my father Xangô

There come two horsemen

Arriving at the seashore

To help Mama

Oh! Mama Iemanjá

And there is father Oxalá

Collecting all of the prayers

And transforming them into light

To illuminate and wash, wash

Let us pray for our Mother

Let us pray

For all of the waters of this Earth to illuminate

It is our life, life of our children

And of our brothers and sisters, even the dolphins
