A vinte e cinco de dezembro
Se reunem os foliões
E vão prá rua
Bater caixa nos portões
Lá vão pandeiro, sanfoneiro, violões
(Santos Reis aqui chegou ai, ai
Pra visitar sua morada ai, ai, ai, ai)
Eles só voltam prá casa dias seis
Dia de Reis
Por sete anos se repete o ritual
Pra todo canto levam o bem, espantam o mal
Ô de casa, ô de fora
Ô de casa, ô de fora
Quem de dentro deve estar
Os de fora Santos Reis
Que lhes vieram visitar
Que vieram visitar, ai, ai
Na folia tem palhaço
Que faz verso e diabrura
Representa o tinhoso
Tentador das criaturas
Mas também tem a bandeira
A Bandeira do Divino
Mais atrás os três Reis Magos
Procurando o Deus Menino
Ô de casa, ô de fora...
Batem lá na sua porta
Pra pagar uma promessa
Levam mestre e contra-mestre
Pra poder cantar a bessa
Dia vinte de janeiro
Eles dão uma festinha
Com viola, violeiro
Desafio e ladainha
Ô de casa, ô de fora...
