Nação

Dorival Caymmi falou pra Oxum
Com Silas tô em boa companhia
O Céu abraça a Terra
Deságua o rio na Bahia
Jêje
Minha sede é dos rios
A minha cor é o arco-íris
Minha fome é tanta
Planta flor, irmã da bandeira
A minha sina é verde-amarela
Feito a bananeira
Ouro cobre o espelho esmeralda
No berço-esplêndido
A floresta em calda
Manjedoura d'alma
Labarágua, sete quedas em chama
Cobra de ferro, Oxumaré
Homem e mulher na cama
Jêje
Tuas asas de pomba
Presas nas costas
Com mel e dendê
Aguentam por um fio
Sofrem
O bafio da fera
O bombardeiro de Caramuru
A sanha d'Anhanguera
Jêje
Tua boca do lixo
Escarra o sangue
De outra hemoptise
No canal do mangue
O uirapuru das cinzas chama
Rebenta a louça, Oxumaré
Dança em teu mar de lama
