Eu tenho orgulho
Da raça dessa cor
Do pulso forte
Da mãe que me criou
Papai dizia
Filho preste atenção
Meu avô era escravo
Mas o seu não era não
No navio negreiro
O horizonte do sofrer
E no cativeiro
Sangraram até morrer
A liberdade
Era a imaginação
Quando sonhavam com a terra
Que ficou no coração
Mais Zé
Sacode o seu xequere
E solte um canto
Pra tristeza esquecer
Seu canto forte
Benze a alma e o coração
Porque o negro quando canta
Canta a dor de uma nação
