"Zumbi" is a song by Brazilian samba-rock artist Jorge Ben. It appears on his 1974 album, A Tábua de Esmeralda. Its title refers to Brazilian slave settlement leader Zumbi dos Palmares. The song's lyrics describe the scene of a slave auction, ending with hopeful speculation about what will happen when Zumbi arrives. The refrain "Angola, Congo, Benguela, Monjolo, Cabinda, Mina, Quiloa, Rebolla" evokes the African origins of the slaves up for sale in the song. This vocal by Ben accompanied only by percussion is interrupted by a short, rising guitar chord, which announces the climax of the song, with the reintroduction of the sound mass of the brass and the singing taking on more passionate and dramatic contours, alternating with figurative intonations, in the final execution of the chorus, i

  • "Zumbi", também conhecida como "África Brasil (Zumbi)", é uma canção composta pelo cantor brasileiro Jorge Ben. Com uma letra que alude a Zumbi dos Palmares, personagem histórico e líder do Quilombo dos Palmares, no século XVII, "Zumbi" foi lançada no álbum A Tábua de Esmeralda, de 1974. Dois anos depois, o compositor regravou a canção para o álbum África Brasil, mas com bastante modificações em relação a versão original, e ela foi rebatizada com o nome desse LP. (pt)
