Maurício de Nassau
Cruzou a rua da praia
Quem é que ao lado dele
Manda na folia
Ancenso delirou quando chegou na praça
O povo recitava, Europa, França e Bahia
Batutas e vassouras desfilavam juntos
Antônio Maria, olhava da janela
Viu Carlos Pena Filho encontrar Capibá
E ofertar a ele a mesma rosa amarela
É do Recife dos velhos sobrados
Mal assombrados de dona Sinhá
Vi Frei Caneca com Gregório Bezerra num passo
Admirado com o elefante a desfilar
E vi um bonde, Admir do esporte
A barca norte ir até o final
E quem comanda a folia
É o dono da casa forte
É o meu avô junto a Maurício de Nassau
