Portela Samba School 2008 Enredo (theme song)
Every year each of the samba schools Brazil participating in Caranval, must have a new theme song or samba enredo, which every member of the school must know by heart. Here is an example of a theme song everyone in the samba school must sing the entire 85 minutes of their part in the carnaval parade, the 2008 carnaval theme song (samba enredo) of Portela, one of the top samba schools in Rio de Janeiro. The name of the song is “Reconstruindo a natureza, recriando a vida: O sonho vira realidade” which means “Reconstructing nature, recreating life: The dream turns into reality”.
