O maracatu, dança negra
E o fado tão português
No Brasil se juntaram
Não sei em que ano ou que mês
Só sei é que foi Pernambuco
Quem fez essa braia dengosa
Que nos deu o baião
Que é dança faceira e gostosa
Português, com fado e guitarra
Cantava o amor
E o negro, ao som do batuque
Chorava de dor
Com melê, com gonguê
Com zabumba, e cantando nagô
Ôi, foi a melodia do branco
E o batucado em zulu
Quem nos deu o baião
Que nasceu do fado e do maracatu
