Can anybody translate these Villa-Lobos songs? It will be very helpful for
me. Thanks.
1 – NOZANI-NA (Canto dos indios Paricis da Serra do Norte – Mato Grosso): it
is a song from the Paricis Indians from Mato Grosso (Brazil):
“Nozani na ore kua, kua,
Kazaete, ete
Nozani na ore kua, kua
Nozani noterahan, rahan,
Olo niti, niti, no terahan,
kozetoza, toza,
notera, tera,
kenakia, kia, nee ena, ena
Ualalo, lalo,
girahalo, halo.”
2 – XANGO (Canto fetiche de Makumba do Brasil): it is a fetishistic African
song from Brazil.
“Xango! Ole gondile
Olala!
Gon gon gon gondila!
Xango ole gondile
Olele!
Gon, gon, gon, gondile!”
The only thing I know is that Xango is the name of an African God or idol
but I am not sure about that.
Thank you again.
