Timbó foi um grande feiticeiro
Vindo do solo africano
Para o rincão brasileiro
Cresceu na ilha de marajó
E nas noites de luanda
Naquelas bandas
Só se ouvia timbó
Num batuquejê
Mandava oló
Okurubandê
Lá do Marajó
Um dia timbó faleceu
Um dia timbó faleceu
E do germe do seu sangue na terra nasceu
A tulipa negra dos sonhos meus
Num batuquejê
Mandava oló
Okurubandê
Um dia timbó faleceu
Um dia timbó faleceu
E do germe do seu sangue na terra nasceu
A tulipa negra dos sonhos meus
Num batuquejê
Mandava oló
Okurubandê
Lá do Marajó
És descendente dos marajoaras
Que é omeu xodó
És descendente dos marajoaras
Que é o meu xodó
A tulipa negra
