...the onomatopoeia approach...
Berimbau (Baden Powell/Vinicius de Moraes)
Who in homage to Man won't try [Quem e homem de bem...]
To be kind and to care and then
He is constantly asking why
Without knowing the where and when
He will enter and see no sight
He is blind to the morning gem
All his life is regret and doubt
And the trouble that follows them
Capoeira won't lose a fight
But some things you cannot defend
Capoeira let me know that it is ready now [Capoeira me mandou...]
It's ready for the fight
Berimbau spoke to me too, and now I know the war
Will be the war of love
And now the obligatory youtube (Toquinho):
