Sapopemba pede axé
Quem é combinados tem samba no pé
A raça negra brilha em todos os lugares
Ecoam os tambores de palmares
Nossa cidade acolheu
De tantas nações diversidade cultural
Era palco de inovações
E com chances tão desiguais
A negra arte não calou
Bravamente resistindo
Vejam na constelação
Três estrelas negras reluzindo
Seu nenê concretizou um ideal
Viu o sonho acontecer no carnaval
E a águia guerreira fez sacudir
Do Largo do Peixe à Sapucaí
Grande sonhador, Netinho de Paula
Trouxe a negritude pra TV da gente
E a periferia agradece consciente
Vai meu samba e pede passagem
Leva a nossa homenagem
Ao mestre das comunicações
Moisés da Rocha comprovou
Que o talento não tem cor
A luz enviada por Deus
O homem jamais ofuscou
