Eu vi terra fumaçar
Vi graveto aestalando ao sol
Eu vi o rio virar
Um deserto de pedra e pó
A noite se avermelhou
De tão quente o céu e o chão
Meu povo se encomendou
Esperando o ,fim do sertão
Dê um jeito meu São Francisco
Foi assim que pedi com fé
De repente choveu bonito
O rio encheu de fazer maré
É triste se acompanhar
O sertão secar e morrer
Compensa a graça de Deus
O milagre do renascer
Só pode mesmo julgar
Que não é exagero meu
Pessoa de boa fé
Ou então quem por lá viveu
Obrigado meu São Francisco
Louvo a Deus sua sagração
Tenha sempre ao seu cuidado
O povo humilde do meu sertão
Não precisa prometer
Ele ajuda a quem tem fé
Fazer bem é seu poder
São Francisco em Canindé
