We, the land of carnival and murder, bring the drums and the sounding of thunder.
Oh my people, we got to get stronger with the spirit of war in Quilombos.

Jungle people, jungle.
Never underestimate our power!
Jungle people, jungle.
Never underestimate our power!

Bring the shit!

Bring our roots, we're under the sun, from in the jungle and from the slums.
Our freedom we bring with this song, never forget where you came from!

Jungle people, jungle.
Never underestimate our power!
Jungle people, jungle.
Never underestimate our power!

Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!

Oxossi, open my way.
I'm gonna tell the world what you say.
I know, God making me a way.
We pray, we pray everyday.

Jungle people, jungle.
Never underestimate our power!
Jungle people, jungle.
Never underestimate our power!

Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!

"Ele é Caboclo, ele é flecheiro.
Bumba na calunga.
É matador de feiticeiro.
Bumba na calunga.
Ele vai firmar seu ponto.
Bumba na calunga.
E vai firmar na angola.
Bumba na calunga e na fé de Oxala.
Bumba na calunga."
(Ponto de coboclo sete flechas/T.E.P.J. da C.)

(He is a Caboclo, he's a warrior.
Bumba na calunga.
He's a wizard killer.
Bumba na calunga.
He'll stand his place.
Bumba na calunga.
Do it in Angola.
Bumba na calunga and faith at Oxala.
Bumba na calunga.)

Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!

Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!

Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!

Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
Bumba, Bumba!
