Ever since Sergio included "Roda" in his concerts a few years ago, I have come to the sudden realization (a little late, I know) that it's truly one of the most kickass B'66 songs ever (What can I say? It never stuck in my mind before).
Since so many of the original Portugese lyrics of B'66 songs have radical political messages ("Upa, Neguinho" being an impassioned plea for Afro-Brazilian liberation and the deceptively sweet "Viola" a literal call to arms against the government), I was wondering if anybody had a translation of "Roda", and if it is of similar sentiment.
