VOICE 1: I feel a supernatural force fill my head, it comes to help me. It brings me a message from beyond, only the one who knows best knows that. A ray of sunlight illuminates my soul, hope shines, my faith rises. Dawn awakens, the silence sings, my throat vibrates, my song flies again. Ogun, warrior, comes with machete in hand because I want him, because I have called him. The war will end, the evil will end, he is moving stones, he is breaking wood, the war will end, the evil will end, he is moving stones, he is breaking wood. Ogun brings a whip, I said he wants to fight, and when I have him, Sarabanda will tremble. He has arrived, the one I've been waiting for, he has arrived, the one who had to arrive, the son of Sixta has arrived, and the earth will tremble.

VOZ 1: Siento que una fuerza
sobrenatural
llena mi cabeza,
me viene a ayudar.
Me trae un mensaje
desde el más allá
eso solo sabe,
el que sabe más.
Un rayo de sol
me ilumina el alma,
brilla la esperanza
se levanta mi fe.
Se despierta el alba
el silencio canta
vibra mi garganta
vuela mi canto otra vez.
Viene Ogún guerrero
con machete en mano
porque yo lo quiero,
porque lo he llamado.
Va a acabar la guerra,
va a acabar lo malo,
va apartando piedra,
va rompiendo palo,
va a acabar la guerra,
va a acabar lo malo,
va apartando piedra,
va rompiendo palo.
Ogún trae un fuete,
dije que quiere pelear
y cuando yo lo tenga
Sarabanda va a temblar.
Ya llegó, quien tanto esperaba,
ya llegó quien tenía que llegar,
ya llegó el hijo de Sixta
y la tierra va a temblar.
CORO: Ogún trae un fuete,
y quiere pelear
cuando yo lo tenga
Sarabanda va a temblar.
VOZ 1: Con machete en mano
viene Ogún guerrero
y llegó la banda
repartiendo cuero.
CORO: Ogún trae un fuete,
y quiere pelear
cuando yo lo tenga
Sarabanda va a temblar.
VOZ 1: Y quítate, quítate, que traigo la espada de Ogún
por si alguien se me atraviesa,
montadito en su caballo
yo vine a cortar cabeza.
CORO: Ogún trae un fuete,
y quiere pelear
cuando yo lo tenga
Sarabanda va a temblar.
VOZ 1: Eh, esto va contigo también Vivi.
Ah, caray, así que ¿cómo te cae?
Y vamos a caminar ahora.
CORO: Apartando piedra, va rompiendo palo.
VOZ 1: Que no se te olvide que tengo mi babalao
y traigo el santo montado
CORO: Apartando piedra, va rompiendo palo.
VOZ 1: Pero qué pena me da, qué pena me da, qué pena me da que el tema se está acabando,
mi saludo para la gente que ahora me está escuchando.
CORO: Apartando piedra, va rompiendo palo.
CORO: Apartando piedra, va rompiendo palo.
CORO: Ogún trae un fuete,
y quiere pelear
cuando yo lo tenga
Sarabanda va a temblar

y quiere pelear
cuando yo lo tenga
Sarabanda va a temblar.

Vamos a caminar ahora.
