(They were outlaw rebels that would steal from the rich and give to the poor)

(like a Brasilian Robin Hood).)

(When they were captured,)

(their heads were decapitated and displayed in the square of the city of Recife,

Pernambuco.)

Quando degolaram minha cabeça

Passei mais de dois segundos

Vendo meu corpo tremendo

E não sabia o que fazer

Morrer, viver, morrer, viver

(Translation:)

When they cut off my head

For more than two seconds

I watch my body shake

And I didn’t know what to do To die, to live, to die, to live
