Eu sou indio guerreiro, tentando sobreviver
Eu jogo capoeira e danço maculêlê
Um dia perseguida agora vou lhes dizer
A capoeira é brasileira e lutou pra sobreviver
Por isso ginga pra lá, ginga pra cá
Maculêlê, rei canga zumbá
O mal do pelourinho viu sangue jorar
Dos negros guerreiros e consegui se libertar
Os quilombolas de hoje não podem deixar
A arte negreira vir se acabar
A regional é em cima, angola no chão
Bimba e pastinha jamais morreirão
Por isso ginga pra lá, ginga pra cá
Maculêlê, rei canga zumbá
Atabaque,pandeira,agogô e o berimbal
Fazem com que a roda fique bem legal
A capoeira está aí pra quem quiser brincar (jogar)
Você é capaz pode acreditar
Por isso ginga pra lá, ginga pra cá
Maculêlê, rei canga zumbá
