Apesar... de não possuir grande beleza
Chica da Silva surgiu no seio da mais alta nobreza
O contratador, João Fernandes de Oliveira
A comprou para ser sua companheira
E a mulata, que era escrava
Sentiu forte transformação
Trocando o gemido da senzala
Pela fidalguia do salão
Com a influencia e poder do seu amor
Que superou a barreira da cor
Francisca da Silva do cativeiro zombou
No arraial do Tijuco
Lá no estado de Minas
Hoje lendária cidade
Seu lindo nome é Diamantina
Onde viveu a Chica, que manda
Deslumbrando a sociedade
Com orgulho e capricho da mulata
Importante majestosa invejada
Para que a vida lhe tornasse mais bela
João Fernandes de Oliveira
Mandou construir um vasto lago
E uma belíssima galera
E uma riquíssima liteira
Para conduzi-la
Quando ia assistir à missa na capela
