A praia de dentro tem areia
A praia de fora tem o mar
Um boto casado com sereia
Navega num rio pelo mar
O corpo dum bicho deu na praia
E a alma perdida quer voltar
Caranguejo conversa com arraia
Marcando a viagem pelo ar
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Com vontade de ir por aí
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Com vontade de ir por aí
Na ilha deserta o Sol desmaia
Do alto do morro vê-se o mar
Papagaio discute com Jandaia
Se o homem foi feito pra voar
Inhambu cantou lá na floresta
E o velho Jereba fêz-se ao ar
Sapo querendo entrar na vesta
Viola pesada pra voar
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Com vontade de ir por aí
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Com vontade de ir por aí
Camiranga, urubu, mestre do vento
Urubu caçador, mestre do ar
Urutau cantando num lamento
Pra Lua redonda navegar
