Song: O Meu Lugar by Arlindo Cruz Genre: Samba
My place is a way to Ogum and Iansa (religious entities)
There's samba until the morning comes
A different song each floor
My place is surrounded by fight and sweat
Belief in a better world
And beer to celebrate
My place have its own myths and creatures
It's very close to Osvaldo Cruz (neighborhood)
Cascadura, Vaz Lobo and Iraja
My place is made of smiles, peace and joy
Your name is sweet to say:
Madureira, la laia

My place is surrounded by fight and sweat
Belief in a better world
And beer to celebrate
My place have its own myths and creatures
It's very close to Osvaldo Cruz

Oh, what a place
The homesick makes me remind
Of the loves I had there
It's hard to forget
Sweet place that is everlasting in my heart
And to the poets gives inspiration
To sing and compose
Oh, my place, who didn't saw aunt Eulalia dancing
Grandma Maria bless the yard
And there's also games at moonlight
Oh, what a place, there's a thousand things we could say
The hard part is know how to finish
Madureira, la laia
Madureira, in each corner a pub and a song
In Madureira, Imperio and Portela are from there (samba schools - carnaval parade)
From Madureira
And in the Big Market you can buy
For a cheap price you will buy
A paradise, a dream for the dreamers
In Madureira
And who wants to can always come
There's street games, country and pool
All kinds of card games to play
In Madureira
And play the lottery I can also
Win hundreds, thousands or millions
On the 7 sides I will surround you
In Madureira
Lalalaia lalaia lalaia
In Madureira
