Histórias da Capoeira,
Você já ouviu contar
Mas existem aquelas
Que você exita em acreditar!
Eu lhe digo que lá da Bahia
Saiu um menino sem nada a levar
Chegando aos pés do Redentor
Mostrou como o Mestre soube lhe ensinar
O vento batendo no peito
O Rio faz seu leito dessendo pro mar
Foi visto como um vagabundo
Hoje corre o mundo com seu abada
Não esperem a sua morte
Em uma cantiga lhe homenagear
Foi visto que seu corpo durma
Jamais sua Luz deixara de brilhar!
