about

Rajdulari is a dear friend who at one point served as the group’s full-time vocalist. Her mother had survived bone cancer and, during hospital treatments, Rajdulari would sing to her. This was one of her mother’s favorites, and when she taught it to us it became one of our favorites as well. It seemed appropriate to invite Rajdulari to sing it with us again here.

lyrics

Rebentou Ilê Aiyê Curuzu
Passo de Angola Ijexá
Vamos pra cama meu bem
Me pegue agora
Me dê um beijo gostoso
Pode até me amassar
Mas me solte quando o Ilê passar

Quero ver você Ilê Aiyê
Passar por aqui

Não me pegue
Não me toque
Por favor não me provoque
Eu só quero ver o Ilê passar

Ilê Ayê Curuzú exploded
with a beat from Angola Ijexá.
Come to bed with me, my friend.

Take me now, give me a luscious kiss.
You can hold me, but let go when Ilê passes by.

I want to see you, Ilê Ayê, pass here.
Don't take hold of me, don't touch me
Please don’t provoke me
I only want to see Ilê pass by...
I want to see you, Ilê Ayê, pass here.
