É saravá, é saravá, é saravá
É saravá meu Pai Oxalá (repeat 2 lines)
É saravá corrente de umbanda
Na corrente de umbanda eu vim me curar (repeat 2 lines)
No brilho do Sol, da Lua e das Estrelas
Nas Águas das chuvas , dos Rios e Mar
No reino do Amor que proclamam os Ventos
Nas folhas, raízes e casca de pau (repeat 4 lines)
É vem de Aruanda
Das terras do meu Pai
Trazendo flores brancas
Nos ensinando Paz (repeat 4 lines)
É vem de Aruanda
Minha Mãe me mostrou
Seu ser de muito brilho
Irradiando Amor (repeat 4 lines)
(chorus)
SARAVÁ
It’s saravá, it’s saravá, it’s saravá
It’s saravá My Pai Oxalá
It’s saravá current of umbanda
In the current of umbanda I’ve come to heal
In the shining Sun, Moon and Stars
The waters of Rain, Rivers and Sea
The Empire of Love that the winds are proclaiming
In the roots, in the bark, in the leaves of the tree
It comes from Aruanda
The lands of my Papa
Bringing white flowers
Teaching us Peace
It comes from Aruanda
My Mother showed to me
Her being of great brilliance
Radiating Love
(chorus)
(Saravá is an exclamation of praise in the Afro-Brasilian religion,Umbanda; Aruanda is home of the Gods-like Valhalla)
