Um menino bem teimoso
Para a mãe assim falou
Vou nadar numa represa
Meu amigo convidou
Sua mãe lhe disse
Meu filhinho não vá lá
É perigoso se afogar
O menino deu as costas
E a mãe falou sozinha
Ele foi na mata entrando
Ela ficou na cozinha
A mãe fez a oração
Disse: "Jesus salva meu filho
Tu És maior que o perigo"
Na represa ele entra
E começa a nadar
Uma forte correnteza
Puxou pro lado de lá
Ele viu a própria morte
E um pouco se afogou
Na agonia da mãe lembrou
Se afogando o menino
Adormece em água cheia
Um milagre acontece
Ele acorda na areia
Foi pra casa assustado
Soluçando e chorando
Quando abre a porta
Ela estava orando
