[Verse]
He who is a good man does not betray
The love that wants the best for him
He who often says he will leave, he does not
As he never leaves, he never arrives
He who had never been inside himself
Will die having loved no one
The money of the one who does not give
Is the labor of the one who does not have
A good capoeira never falls
But if one day he falls, he falls well

[Chorus]
Capoeira tells me to say
He has already arrived
He has arrived to fight
Berimbau assures me
There will be lovers' quarrel
Such sadness, my friend
