Majestosa África
Berço dos meus ancestrais
Reflete no espelho da vida
A saga das negras e seus ideais
Mães feiticeiras, donas do destino...
Senhoras do ventre do mundo
Raiz da criação
Do mito a história
Encanto e beleza
Seduzindo a realeza
Candaces mulheres, guerreiras.
Na luta, justiça e liberdade
Rainhas soberanas
Florescendo pra eternidade
Novo mundo, novos tempos.
O suor da escravidão
A bravura persistiu
Aportaram em nosso chão
Na Bahia... Alforria
Nas feiras tradição
Mães de santo, mães do samba!
Pedem proteção
E nesse canto de fé
Salgueiro traz o axé
E faz a louvação
Odoyá Iemanjá; Saluba Nanã!
Eparrei Oyá
Orayê Yêo, Oxum!
Oba Xi Obá
