Batucada do Leste proudly presents it's 2007 Enredo "Homenagem" (Tribute). This year's enredo is based on a traditional Ashkenaz melody of 'Mizmor L'David' (Psalm 23) which has been adapted to fit our
rolling batucada grooves. All original lyrics written

Here are the full lyrics to our 2007 ENREDO (Download PDF)
Hebrew Intro
Mizmor L'David
Adoshem roe lo echsar
Binot deshe yarbitzayni
Al may menuchot y'nahalayni.
Nafshi y'shovayv
Nafshi y'shovayv
Yanchayni v'maglay tzedek
Le ma'an shmo.
A Psalm by David.
G-d is my Shepard, I shall not lack.
In lush meadows He will lay me down.
Besides tranquil waters He leads me.
He restores my soul.
He leads me on paths of justice for His name sake.
Portuguese Chorus
Pequeno e poderoso,
Na onda do David.
Num mundo de tristeza,
O nosso povo e a fortaleza.
Vem Batucada, do Leste a gente vem,
Amor da Bahia, paz e alegria, cantar Homenagem.
Vem Batucada, Pasaro de Fogo
Formando nova tradicao,
A representar um pouco da aquarela
Que a gente tem no coracao
Em Pasaro de Fogo, re-encontrei meu sonho,
E a magia ainda tem,
Amor na Bahia, paz e alegria,
Cantar Homenagem.
Small and powerful,
On the wave of King David.
In a world of sadness,
Our community is our stronghold.
The Batucada is coming, from the East we are coming,
Love from the the Bay, peace and happiness, sing Homenagem (Tribute).
The Batucada is coming, Pasaro de Fogo,
Forming a new tradition.
To represent a little bit of the rainbow,
That we have in our hearts.
In Pasaro de Fogo I re-found my dream,
And the magic is still there!
Love in the the Bay, peace and happiness
Sing Homenagem (Tribute).
Hebrew Chorus
Ach tov
Ach tov vachesed
Yirdefuni
Kol y'may chayay
V'shavti v'shavti b'vayt Hashem
V'shavti b'vayt Hashem l'orech yamim.
Ta'aroch l'fanay shulchan, ta'aroch l'fanay shulchan
Ta'aroch l'fanay shulchan, neged tzor'ray.
Dishanta vashemen roshi, dishanta vashemen roshi
Dishanta vashemen roshi, kosi r'vayah.
May only goodness and kindness
Pursue me all the days of my life.
And I shall dwell in the House of G-d
For long days.
You prepare a table before me,
In view of my tormentors.
You anointed my head with oil,
My cups overflows.
