With a love that never ends, humble and sweet, Obalué appears.
Son of a queen, Nana Buruke abandoned him when, as a disobedient,
the skin was damaged. Yemaia, faithful sister, that child picked up.
He had mercy. And Eleggua also helped him.
When, at night, you hear the bells that Obalué carries,
Do not let your glass voice scare you, just remember the love that goes into it.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
He is humble and powerful. And miraculous is his power.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
December is the month of the saint and my song, of respect is.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
Eleggua opens the way to Omolu, son of King.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
The one who respects the saint and the one who does not lose faith is not frightened.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
Good Orisha, who heals the arum. Good Orisha, who dictates the ashe.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
It can take away the bad, do not be afraid of it.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
Take a bath in apasote, cleanse yourself with malvaté.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
The bell rings, the bell rings, its tone is beautiful
and it is sad, at the same time.
I hear bells, come Obalué!
With a love that never ends, Obalué arrives!
Only among all we can make this a better place :)
