Iô, senhor...
Iô, senhor...
Uma negra teve um filho
Ê pó, ê pó, ê pó
O umbigo do menino
Ela amarrou foi com cipó
Escutei um choro na senzala
E um batuque de reza aos orixás
Chegou mais um guerreiro na terra
Chegou mais um filho de oxalá
Tem a pele de noite sem lua
Tem olhar com brilho de luar
Tem a alma tão branca e tão pura
Como a cor da espuma do mar
Guerreiro
Não nasceste pro cativeiro, mas sim
Nasceste pro samba de roda
Nasceste pro maculelê
Pra roda de capoeira
Nasceste pro candomblé
Nasceste pra ser doutor
Poeta ou governador
Meu moreno, meu guerreiro
Vou cantar pro mundo inteiro
Nasceu foi um cidadão
Um cidadão brasileiro
Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum...
Teu chão se chama brasil
