Odete ouve o meu lamento
Lamento de um coração magoado
Atenda o seu pobre seresteiro
Vem de novo pro terreiro
Se juntar a sua gente
Não ouve o seu coração que ele mente
Lá no morro da mangueira
Quando Sol vai se escondendo as cabrochas
Vão saindo Procurando a batucada
E a noite vem chegando e a Lua vem surgindo
Há tanta gente que sobe só você não vem subindo Odete
