ÁGUIA PIOU
THE EAGLE SCREECHED
- Nonata de Melo e Souza
Águia piou, Águia piou
E todo pássaro voou
Para o meio da floresta
Se encontrar com o Beija-flor
O Beija-flor, Santo das matas
Bateu as asas na mais alta vibração
Todos pássaros tornaram-se encantados
Entrando em concentração
Águia desceu, Águia pousou
No terreiro do Santo Beija-flor
Todos pássaros se iluminaram
Cantando a luz do resplendor
The Eagle screeched, the Eagle screeched
And every bird flew
To the middle of the forest
To meet the Hummingbird
The Hummingbird, Saint of the jungle
Flapped his wings in the high vibration
All the birds became enchanted
And entered in concentration
The Eagle descended, the Eagle landed
In the terreiro of the Hummingbird
All the birds enlightened themselves
Singing the light of the resplendor
refrain, sung twicerefrain, sung three or more times
Hymn 132 of 157.
