Lê Parana


Song Lyrics


History and sentiment behind song

Para and Parana are cities, but Parana could also refer to a man. In candomblé there is also a caboclo called Parana.

Paraná is a southern state of Brasil, which borders Paraguay and whose river (also called the Paraná) was fought over in a war with Paraguay in the 1860s. Many slaves (among them, capoeiristas) were sent to fight in this war, with the promise of earning their freedom.
