Rozinha e Zé João

Quando a Lua nova pisca lá na serra na escuridão
Conta o povo que a onça enfeitiçada ronda o sertão
Ninguém sai de casa, ninguém abre a porta pra ninguém não
O medo medonho, o medo da fera, da assombração
Dizem que Rosinha era apaixonada por Zé João
Ele a desprezou e amargurou o seu coração
Caçoou da moça e rindo espalhou por todo o sertão
Que ela era bruxa e que virava onça na escuridão
Foi dias depois aconteceu
Zé João tombado na beira da estrada amanheceu
Foi na Lua nova que aconteceu
A sussuarana deixou como prova o rastro seu
E rosa então desmilinguiu, o mundo ruiu
O povo fugiu, escureceu, o chão se abriu, ninguém mais a viu
Rosinha sumiu, desapareceu
