'rosário' is a song of time and togetherness.
powered by the voices, drums, poetry and imagination of the ceremonies of Congos, Reisados, and others in devotion to Nossa Senhora do Rosário. within it live small moments of miracle.
lá do céu até aqui na terra,
ó meu deus tá caindo flor...
vai passando, vai passando mais um ano
vai caindo, vai caindo mais estrela
e no final das contas
é querer ser que nem rosário
cada conta colada na outra
(EN tr.)
flowers are falling...
flowers are falling...
from way up in heaven down into earth
oh, god, flowers are falling...
another year passes by and by
stars keep falling and falling
and in the end
we wish to be as a rosary
each one a bead glued to the other
