África

Que a luz do sol se espalhe
Por toda a imensidão do mundo
Araketu vem cantar pra o negro
Delirar segundo a segundo
E hoje eu abro meu peito
Porque sou feliz, porque sou feliz
Araketu se fez radiante
Quando alimentou sua raiz
Um sorriso aberto em premazia
Guardando amor no seu interior
E hoje negro é importante
Pois é oriundo da costa nagô
África, uô ô
África, ô, ô, ô, ô
Vejo luzir a cidade
E como mensagem
O Araketu a cantar
Com seus dez anos de luta
Todo o povo a festejar
Eis impermeável
Eis tão formidável
Araketu alafiá
Hoje pede licença
Pra carnaxe passar
Ó pétala do mundo negro
Sou Araketu
E abro meu peito
