O mar me fez ser quem hoje sou
O mar que me salvou
Não vai me abandonar
Ó mar, leve embora a minha dor
Leva por favor
Pra nunca mais voltar
Botei os meus pés na areia
Nas asas de Deus e Iemanjá
Tudo passa tão depressa
Não adianta correr
Posso te fazer feliz
Quero ser feliz com você
O mar me fez ser quem hoje sou
O mar que me salvou
Não vai me abandonar
Ó mar, leve embora a minha dor
Leva por favor
Pra nunca mais voltar
Quando estou no meu terreiro
Quando estou no meu altar
Peço ajuda ao meu povo
Força pra poder lutar
E agradeço com fé
Pra poder continuar
O mar me fez ser quem hoje sou
O mar que me salvou
Não vai me abandonar
Ó mar, leve embora a minha dor
Leva por favor
Pra nunca mais voltar
