Festa Lyrics in English Ivete Sangalo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Festa by Ivete Sangalo from Russian to English.
Party in the ghetto
Come on, come close
Mixing the whole world
Let's see what comes of it
Today there's a party in the ghetto
Come on, come close
Mixing the whole world
Let's see what comes of it
There's people of every color
There's races of every faith
Rock'n'roll guitars
Candomblé drums
Go there to see
The tribe swing
And the ground shake
Mama Preta over there sent for us
She warned! She warned! She warned! She warned!
That the party's gonna roll
It's gonna roll!
The ghetto folks
Sent word
That the party's gonna roll
It's gonna roll!
The ghetto folks
Sent word
Party in the ghetto
Come on, come close
Mixing the whole world
Let's see what
Today there's a party in the ghetto
Come on, come close
Mixing the whole world
Let's see what comes of it
There's people of every color
There's races of every faith
Rock'n'roll guitars
Candomblé drums
Go there to see
The tribe swing
And the ground shake
Mama Preta over there sent for us
She warned! She warned! She warned! She warned!
That the party's gonna roll
It's gonna roll!
The ghetto folks
Sent word
That the party's gonna roll
It's gonna roll!
The ghetto folks
Sent word
Come! Come! Come!
(Na Na Na na na
It's pretty, it's pretty, it's pretty
It's lovely
Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!)
There's people of every color
There's races of every faith
Rock'n'roll guitars
Candomblé drums
Go there to see
The tribe swing
The ground shake
Mama Preta over there sent for us
She warned! She warned! She warned! She warned!
That the party's gonna roll
It's gonna roll!
The ghetto folks
Sent word
That the party's gonna roll
It's gonna roll!
The ghetto folks
Sent word
I wanna hear the party's gonna roll
Everybody there
The ghetto folks
Sent word
That it's, that it's gonna roll
It's gonna roll!
The ghetto folks
Sent word

SONG MEANING

Picture a street party where the whole planet is invited. In Festa, Ivete Sangalo turns the ghetto into the most vibrant stage in Brazil, calling people of every color, faith and rhythm to come together. Rock guitars crash into Afro-Brazilian candomblé drums, while the ancestral figure of Mãe Preta gives her blessing, making the ground shake with unity and pride.

The repeated shout that "vai rolar a festa" (the party will happen) is more than a promise of fun; it’s a joyful declaration of inclusion and resistance. By mixing cultures, celebrating Afro-Bahian roots and opening its arms to the world, the song reminds us that music can break boundaries and transform the streets into a shared, unstoppable dance floor.
