A Bahia é uma cidade Negra
Ai, ai,ai dë
A Bahia é uma cidade negra
Ai,ai,ai dë
Tem ladeiras de subir
E ladeiras de descer
Tem ladeiras de subir
E ladeiras de descer
As ladeiraas de subir vão até o infinito
As ladeiras de descer se mergulham
Nas profundezas da alma
Ai,ai,ai, de canta comigo que eu quero vê
Ai,ai,ai de canta comigo que eu quero vê
Caminha pela estrada da liberdade
E por outras ruas sobe a ladeira
Da Água Brusca
Que se derrama pelos coxins de verdura
O verão bateu aqui às minhas portas
E riscou de tinta
O meu corpo e a minha pele
Enviesadas nas sombras da escravidão
Bahia
A Bahia é uma cidade negra
Retiro agora de mim as palavras para o silencio
Até que eu ressuscite pelo som
E pela beleza
Que definitivamente
São as vozes da alma
E as alegrias do mundo
