A cara preta pintou na cidade
Com o som estridente do tambor
Levante, agite, não fique parado não
Vem bailar com o canto do Olodum
Bailar, bailar, bailar (amor)
Bailar, bailar, bailar (2x)
Poeira ô, olha poeira ai, ai, ai, ai
Acordou José e levantou Mari
A união vai nos fortalecer
Em busca da paz nessa sociedade
Avante Olodum não vá retroceder
Poeria ô, olha poeira ai, ai, ai, ai
