Aqui có no terreiro,
Ô pelu, adié,
Faz inveja pra gente
Que não tem mulher (x2)
Ih!
No jacutá de preto velho,
Há uma festa de yao (x2)
Oi tem nega de ogum.
De oxala, de iemenjá.
Mucamba de oxossi é caçador,
Ora viva nanã, nanã borocô (x2)
Yo, yooooooooo (x2)
No terreiro de preto velho, iaiá,
Vamos saravá,
A quem meu pai?
Xangoo (x2)
Aqui có no terreiro,
Ô pelú, adié
Faz inveja pra gente
Que não tem mulher (x2)
No jacutá de preto velho
Há uma festa de yao (x2)
Oi tem nega de ogum.
De oxala, de iemenja,
Mucama de oxossi é caçador
Ora viva nanã, nanã borocô (x2)
Ih!
Yo, yoo (x2)
No terreiro de preto velho, iaiá,
Vamos saravá,
A quem meu pai?
Xangoo (x2)
