No território mineiro
Na região denominada Sabará
Existiu um preto velho
Tido como feiticeiro
Que assombrava o lugar
Quando ele ia à cidade
Com alegria batia o seu tambor
Dinheiro lhe davam como caridade
O que faziam com temor
As crianças lhe adoravam
Gostavam das suas histórias ouvir
De rei era chamado
O preto velho David
Eis a resposta pra que tanto dinheiro
Se o seu casebre está para cair
Enfim, chegou fevereiro
A congada vem aí
Bandeira vermelha no alto do morro
Vem descendo o cortejo
À frente vem David
Ginga, a rainha enciumada
Queria o trono conquistar
Mandava seu embaixador
Contra as armas dos reis lutar
O cortejo segue o seu itinerário
Do largo da igreja à festa do Rosário
Houve a coroação
Negros e brancos se uniram
E a missa assistiram deu-se a transformação
