Cabuçu girl
Samba-Enredo – Letter

Comes in the balance of color memory

I jump the strings of this life

Procession dolls

My Robot became a truck...

♪ Pips dancing in the air ♪

I have everything

I'm just dreaming

There's Clown!!

There's poetry too

From the melody rises the song

Memories I keep

In my heart

I don't have it!

Just kidding, let's remember

On the wheel spins, smiles at the dance

♪ Come to my world ♪

It's good to be a child....

♪ If the limit is the sky ♪

Travel in the imagination

On the Internet I can see

The world On the palm of my hands

But don't let it

The screen traps you

It's necessary to think, grow, study

The Magic of Childhood

Can't end (can't end)

Hope makes me reborn

A New and Fairer World

For Me and you

♪ With the glow in the eye ♪

Good will always bloom

Laiaraiá Playing is living

Missing reminds me

Eternal Infancy of Love

What am I? Girl!

Not guilty of Capricious
Entangled: Ana Botafogo – From Municipal to Carnaval. A Innocent Walk through the Art of Dancing
Samba-Enredo – Letter
The curtain of joy has opened

The theater embraced the samba

Beautiful union in harmony

To honor

The girl who was born artist

Your fairy godmother predicted

She'd be...

The most famous dancer in Brazil

The drums make the musical

On this multicolor lit stage

The passion of carnaval

Bring Ana back, eternal lady of the city

Art incorporated into life

Of our dancing cinderella

With Swan Lake, Nutcracker, Coppelia and more

The whole world was enchanted... forever

From coxia to masterful scenes

And today the crowd of the bleachers

Give it up for our kids

Beats a strong heart

On the pillars of emotion

Spin, spin, spin

Come dance with us

Here's Ana Botafogo in the folia

With a capricious and “not guilty” dance

Empire of the Future (Império Serrano)
Enredo 2026: “The Little King arrived at the Touch of the Agogogo with Edgard the Creator!”
Samba-Enredo – Letter
There, right up the hill, near the stars

There, a little boy, heir of love

Between faith and drum, bis

I created my agogo!

(It was there...)
There, right up the hill, near the stars

There, a little boy, heir of love

Between faith and the drum,

I created my agogo!

(And so...)
He came so different

In a very simple way of living...

To see the simple things of life

Where love has to learn

So I learned from this prince

Living with faith and reason

May longing yield light and inspiration

Now I'm asked

“ What is that sound, oh?”

“It’s my agogo!”

4 mouths open and cry

Shine the sunlight

Metal turns sound into prayer

The samba talking right to the heart!

Hit the ground, shake the battery

I hear the touch of the agogo!

4 mouths that don't shut

It was Edgard who invented it!

(Bis)

Dolphins from Rio de Janeiro Entangled: And the Dolphins on a tour of the “Arco-Iris”
Samba-Enredo Letra:
In the dense forest, in the moonlight
The victory-regy, so beautiful floats

In the water mirror, such joy

The dancing boat in your company

Iara girl, humming

In the blue Amazon, look who comes there

The being that inhabits the river and the sea

And teaches what it's like to preserve

Soft laughter, sweet hope
In the magic of love

Blessed is every child

A protective dolphin

On the shores, happy friends
To the sound of the springs, playing

Water is life, it is purification

That kills the thirst of the population

It was God who gave

You better take care of it.

For later not to miss

Lots of light on his way, “Golfs”
Go from Rio de Janeiro to the world to show

The blue Amazon and its green lung

Crying strong for preservation

There are still children in Kennedy Village - Villa Kennedy
Entangled: Love for freedom and the world of children
Samba-Enredo – Letter
Hello, planet.

I need your attention.

At the speed of a comet

Childhood is going extinct

Child labour

Are you going to say you've never seen it?

We've already been marginalized.

Treaties with no value

Finally the UN planted

The seed of love

My right becomes law

I deserve it.

Against Hunger Evil

The ECA is a new beginning is our freedom

Now

♪ You gotta win ♪

Dribbling the ills with education

Denouncing traps

No more rape.

Why so much screen, play and play

Overwhelming my desire to fly

Boys and girls

Free then

So that evil

Don't touch your heart

Comes with the menozada of rhythm

My carnaval “I play”

Singing free hope

There are still children

Penha Petizes
Entangled: Spring: The garden of dreams and joys
Samba-Enredo – Letter
Composition: Leozinho Nunes and Fabão

The perfume is in the air

In a beautiful colorful life

Life will blossom

♪ Joy comes to bloom ♪

In the magic of a garden I'm a child

Sun and rain in alliance

♪ It shined in the sky ♪

The rainbow that will guide me

How rich in my eyes

He's got rabbit spreading everywhere.

Fun and chocolate

Casulo opened... surprise!

The caterpillar turned into a beautiful butterfly

Makes me levitate like a hummingbird

The charm of the drum

I see Gardeners

For the flora, in union

If luck is cast

Ladybug's the reason

And the bear woke up

In a sea of roses and tulips

Of sunflowers and daisies

The Good-Me of Generations

Let the fairy charm your heart

That the joke will follow journey

In the Summer Adventures

We are seeds of tomorrow

From the fruit to the most beautiful flower

The green of the field sprung my talisman

Petize my spring

Children of the Eagle - Portela Entangled: Masks of Justice

“By letters of the wind, I write this letter”
With rain paints
My outburst, I scream stuck

That nobody listens

♪ Say you love me ♪

But throw the garbage that runs into the sea

Deforest my soil for a thousand generations

And cover that sky with smoke air

But I can believe

What better days will finally come

In the hands of the children

It's perseverance

To know how to respect

Taking care is planting love
Listening to the forest, life flourishes

Spoon and water

Do our part

Fighting for the world is art

And the answer is received
It comes from the hearts of tomorrow's guardians

♪ Who turned it into joy, into fantasy ♪

My cry

Today, she parades her courage with her conscience

For every smile is to be resistance

And justice lies in the drum

I follow, I insist and I am!

Today, hope
Dresses in the colors of great change

Made of vera light

I sign down, Mother Earth.

It's time to act, for our blue house
From the Sons of the Eagle, the cry echoed

To keep in mind

That our future begins now

Samba-Enredo – Letter
I'll go down the hill, take my message, more

Once Honoring the Legacy

Just understand, in the trajectory I'm with you

SO MANY LIFE LICTIONS

Master is who gives way

I'M HISTORZINHO EMOLDURATED IN INCTS AND AXES

THE LOOK OF MY NATIVE MOTHER

MY FATHER'S LIVE COLORS

HERANCES, FESTANCES AND CANDOMBLES

PINCEL WILL DRINK MELODIAS

THE POINTED SKY OF BALONS

WARRIOR, CARIOCA, BRAZILIRO

Samba-Enredo – Letter
Dream, move on and always learn,

that life is a struggle to survive.

Respect and education I carry in me,

Sambista, at last, has its value.

In your talent, a promising future.

In Okan I traveled, fine arts I saw,

Bambas barn glowing.

Here comes Caxias, everything will change,

a beautiful dance, love poem,

Kids schools, my Carnaval show.

Perfect blend to fall in love,

It's fantasy reflected in the look.

I wish the world was just happiness,

follow the steps of ancestry.

Give the child affection and love,

a new tomorrow, whoever she is.

Will that utopia ever

Will it be real?

My story won't go away.

I'm a kid, not a social problem.

My Ori led me down this road,

to the gala de erê, curumim, children.

Pimps called,

Doum,

Sapucaí sings Maalum.

Borel Tijuquinha - United of Tijuca
Entangled: Pavãozinho knows Rio de Janeiro and sings the beauties of our state
Samba-Enredo – Letter
I went on a trip...

On the horizon a work to shine

That in the bay seems to float

Exhaling the seasaw

In the clear sand I feel the magic

♪ I hear drums resonating ♪

Faith Shakes the Body

Axé coming from the sea

The sun kissing crystal clear waters

It reflects the divine charm

In each region a beauty

Peacock was enchanted with nature

So many places I've been

On many roads I fell in love

I shine in the eye every February

Save the magic of my Rio de Janeiro

On the trails of the mountain, cultural wealth

On the streets of the Lapa a ritual

In the funk I'll throw myself

In swing the cadence will catch

The most beautiful colors remember my home

In Maracanã has samba and football

Blessing of God

♪ This beautiful ride ♪

I'm Tijuquinha and I'm going to be thrilled
Rio is my place of samba
I came down the happy Borel of life

Samba-Enredo – Letter

Imagine that.

Two stars, our dream to draw

Giving life to art

Because it's part of life to dream

Living in outer space

In a family beyond special

On the floor of Sambar Avenue

with Super Powerful Girls

BE MANDACHUVA or Zé hive

The character of a great idea

But look who's coming up there making the turn

Speeding up and almost got off the track

Oh, my God.

What a crazy race

Charming Penelope and Trickster Dick

I asked the master for impossible stops

The people vibrated! It's a 10!

While Tom was following Jerry, olé

Flintons said on the foot

I made a lot of people play, I dated Loop le Beu

I was a detective with Scooby Dooby Doo

It's good to be a child

In this world of imagination

It is made Carnaval coloring the illusion

Our dream is real, it's out of the picture

Today the stars of the film comes to Father Miguel

"Encouraging" the people full of joy

Hanna-Barbera and my little star

Tomorrow Hose - Hose
Enredo 2026: ‘Behind the Green and Rosa just don’t go who has already died’
Samba-Enredo – Letter

Take me I'll go

My dream

Behind the pink-green

Just don't go who's already dead

Bahia is light

From poet to moonlight

Mysticism of a People

Save all orixás

Who sent me

Stars from there

It was San Salvador.

To shine night

Hose!

Throwing flowers across the sea

He's enchanted with the muse

That Bahia gives

Obá berimbau gonzá

Capoeira

Play a verse for yay

Caetano and Gil ô

With the tropicalia in the eye

Sweet Barbarians teaching

♪ The breeze to shake ♪

The sweetness of a voice

A song

At the Theater Opinion

Bethania explodes heart

Sunday in the park love

Joy, joy I'll go

The flower at the party of the countryside

His name is Gal.

Applause to the songbook

It is carnaval, it is Rio de Janeiro

Take me I'll go

My dream

Behind the pink-green

It's just not going who's already dead.

Willow Learners
Entangled: Creep! Learners
Samba-Enredo – Letter
The gift that enchanted the avenue

The charisma that creeps

Today we will consecrate

The story that blooms there on the Island

It blooms in melodies

“O how beautiful” your singing!

A new destination led your road

Boarding Ita, enchanted trip

Opening the paths you've always dreamed of

Sambist indeed, his art has eternalized!

I use bow and arrow, on the head a head a curl

I've guaranteed yo-yo, I've got ya.

Red and white became a love affair

Da Silva Teles to the Street of the Listener

Pully, irreverent!

No better, no worse, just different

In Majestic Africa the drum in tune

Damned to go to the gym

In the subtlety of his verses

My eyes are still shining

Go on from the sky resisting

And this way I dream

♪ Here come the learners, blow up the heart ♪

Here's your yard, beloved lump

Eternal and crowned by all of us

Quinho, master of the voice

Dream of the Kiss-Flor

Children of the Eagle - Portela
Entangled: Masks of Justice

Cries of the Empress - Empress Leopoldinense
Entangled: A Delirious Fabulous Confusion
Samba-Enredo – Letter
Once upon a time... And a child's smile

Makes you believe...

Once upon a time...

In an enchanted world,

Get ready to dream...

Fairy tales, queens and kings...

Clothes that people cannot see

The little shoes dancing alone

A nightingale singing

Mermaid girl, the ballerina...

Universe created by a dreamer

And the boy has overcome poverty

And made art the beautiful princess

With whom he lived great love

Get the viola the repenist

Counts in verses that the great artist

From Denmark it flew, it went beyond

Like a hilly swan

Hans Christian Andersen

It was Monteiro Lobato.

A Master of Children's Literature

Stories written with art

And from all sides counted in Brazil

The place has no borders.

Opening doorways to imagination

Dona Benta gets enchanted

The people of fairy tales

In a delirious mess

The class of the place is ready.

The Empress pretends

Emilia singing like this:

Come travel in this story

Just say "pirlimpimim."

Tuiuti grandchildren
Samba-Enredo – Letter
Bring all the fag on deck

Shout the patriarch so the world can hear

In the ark of the future, the oar of the Galés!

Sea of a thousand children of my Tuiuti

The lion escaped the ring

The Quizombian gorilla made the viola cage

Elephant's up in the air

More than a ton stirred the corroola

♪ I wish I could wake the beauty and the beast ♪

The bear and the flower of spring

Whales surrounded by dolphins

After seven waves, the path...

Blue macaw sky! Tone of sabbah!

Freedom is a bird...

Free to fly and there goes marola...

In a cageless world

Rooster doesn't want a fight or a fight.

Tell the bullfighter the bullfight has no bull!

Not that kid! Don't be afraid

Put on the sign: There's no rodeo tomorrow!

The man, the beast that mistreats

From the green forest made smoke and chimney!

The troupe is here, a cannery squad!

There's no poison, spider lady.

Hope rules life

Land in the Avenida every ark of Noah!

I'm a snake raised in samba
From the heaven of bamba...
I'm Tuiuti! I'm a cub on this floor!
I'm not afraid of a bogeyman!

Turning Hope - Turn around
Entangled: Pretend it's a party – Brazil that lives in us
Samba-Enredo – Letter
Hey, curumim, come and see

We learn more from this country

That in each corner sings different

Of our brassis, my happy singing

A boy told me

From the flags of the divine

Of the fandango violas

How blue the sky is seen from the South

I told you about my grandma's jingle.

And that the Carnaval here is samba only

The samba ciranda on the wheel

Wheel, party nation

The Brazilian soul prays a song

♪ Banging your heart ♪

In the catira beats the foot, raises dust

The hillbilly viola cries all night

People of faith and tradition

In praising Saint Benedict, his devotion

Hey, bitch of the plague, call the Sanfone

Has maracatu and frevo

There in the Para of Our Lady

If the crying rolls, it's thrill

Upriver follows the riverside corner

And find the way of my heart

You'll echo my dream boy
Our destiny is to sing
And the glare in the eye becomes hope
And we dance to celebrate
