Benedito pretinho, óia as
Onda do mar, lê lê ô
Óia as onda do mar!
Ele vai, ele vem, ele torna
A voltá, lê lê ô
Óia as onda do mar!
Eu vou-me embora dessa
Terra desgraçada
Onde a gente não faz
Nada pra comê nem pra gozá!
Na minha terra tudo muda de figura
Tem farinha, rapadura
Tem viola pra tocá!
Tem mariquinha, tem
Chiquinha, tem tereza!
Tem também cuscuz na mesa
Angú de mío e fubá
Tem sabiá cantando!
Solta no terreiro
Tem o chico cambitêro
Pro meu cavalo arriá
