Si'erê, Odun, Carcará
Olorum Di Dè, Alafim
Foi a tribo dos agudá
Que levou o Brasil pra Benim
África desembarcou na Bahia
Negro chegou na corrente do mar
Era só peça de mercadoria
Pro sinhozinho de engenho comprar
Mas com facão de cortar nó de cana
Negro fez o pelourinho tombar
Louvando os deuses da raça africana
Na mesma mesa dos santos de altar
Si'erê, Odun, Carcará
Olorum Di Dè, Alafim
Foi a tribo dos agudá
Que levou o Brasil pra Benim
Negro malê fez revolta, fez guerra
Povo agudá assim surgiu, fez motim
Foi só com sangue banhando essa terra
Que o cativeiro acabou, foi assim
Hoje por força de estranha ironia
Povo africano voltou pra Benim
Deixando seus orixás na Bahia
Levando Nosso Senhor do Bonfim
Si'erê, Odun, Carcará
Olorum Di Dè, Alafim
Foi a tribo dos agudá
Que levou o Brasil pra Benim
