MY COUNTRY'S KID
I hope you can be happy
My country's kid
Dressing your brothers with love
Laugh and laugh kid
Because what you're living today
Will tomorrow be a pleasant memory
If some day you graduate
My country's kid
Let the drums intoxicate you
Just let your self be carried away
And you'll never forget it
Your life will always be a Candombe
If you want to live freely
My country's kid
Don't ever stop speaking to your brothers
And if anyone tries to hold you down
Get together with 5,000 more just like you
And bring your hands down on the drums
