The Capoeira video below was actually posted on YouTube by SesameStreet. It presents very plainly why Capoeira appeals to children as well as adults. While the younger generations may not understand the grasp of Capoeira culturally or from a historical perspective, they can first simply appreciate it for the joy of artistic expression, you know, for the fun of it!
Oh yes, and don't tell they are actually exercising !
I'm looking for the lyrics of a certain capoeira song.
The problem is that I don't know the exact title.
All I know is the chorus of the song which goes like this
a we a we a we e
o le le le le le le le le o
Can any body help me with either the lyrics or the title of this song or alternatively with a few good sites to look for capoeira lyrics (I've tried a lot of them with little succes)
Thanks in advance
The song is called Capoeira e da nossa cor (Capoeira is our color). Lyrics are below.
E Lê lê lê lê lê lê lê lê lê ô
au ê au ê au ê ê
E Lê lê lê lê lê lê lê lê lê ô
tá no sangue da raça brasileira
Capoeira
é da nossa cor
berimbau
é da nossa cor
atabaque
é da nossa cor
o pandeiro
é da nossa cor
au ê au ê au ê ê
E Lê lê lê lê lê lê lê lê lê ô
au ê au ê au ê ê
E Lê lê lê lê lê lê lê lê lê ô
