Toots Thielemans – Canto De Ossanha lyrics
O canto da mais difícil
E mais misteriosa das deusas
Do candomblé baiano
Aquela que sabe tudo
Sobre as ervas
Sobre a alquimia do amor"

Deaaá! Deeerê! Deaaá!

O homem que diz "dou"
Não dá!
Porque quem dá mesmo
Não diz!
O homem que diz "vou"
Não vai!
Porque quando foi
Já não quis!
O homem que diz "sou"
Não é!
Porque quem é mesmo "é"
Não sou!
O homem que diz "tou"
Não tá
Porque ninguém tá
Quando quer
Coitado do homem que cai
No canto de Ossanha
Traidor!
Coitado do homem que vai
Atrás de mandinga de amor

Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Não Vou!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Não Vou!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Não Vou!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Não Vou!

Que eu não sou ninguém de ir
Em conversa de esquecer
A tristeza de um amor
Que passou
Não!
Eu só vou se for prá ver
Uma estrela aparecer
Na manhã de um novo amor

Amigo sinhô
Saravá
Xangô me mandou lhe dizer
Se é canto de Ossanha
Não vá!
Que muito vai se arrepender
Pergunte pr'o seu Orixá
O amor só é bom se doer
Pergunte pr'o seu Orixá
O amor só é bom se doer

Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Amar!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Sofrer!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Chorar!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Dizer!

Que eu não sou ninguém de ir
Em conversa de esquecer
A tristeza de um amor
Que passou
Não!
Eu só vou se for prá ver
Uma estrela aparecer
Na manhã de um novo amor

Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Amar!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Sofrer!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Chorar!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Dizer!

Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Amar!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Sofrer!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Chorar!
Vai! Vai! Vai! Vai!
Dizer!
