To escape from the farms
The slaves are running
Searching for freedom
The captain of the brushwood
Hunting the fugitives
Sixty years of fight
Freedom, to the slaves
They didn’t want to fight
Freedom, to the slaves
They just wanted to live
Free from “Palmatórias”
Of the lashes and logs
The “Quilombo of Palmares”
More we will know
A wall for freedom
Nobody couldn’t cross
Freedom, to the slaves
They didn’t want to fight
Freedom, to the slaves
They just wanted to live
solo
Freedom, to the slaves
They didn’t want to fight
They just wanted to live
The slaves organized
their own lives
