A noite já vai chegar
Eis minha oferenda aos orixás
Para que eles possam avisar
Quem vem lá, quem vem lá? Oô
No ventre da escuridão
Muitos gritos na confusão
Chove chumbo, barro no chão
As lanças enfrentam o canhão, Eê
Quem tratou de mudar
Como sempre, as regras do jogo?
Quem mandou recolher
De repente, as armas de fogo?
Epá babá oxalá axé!
Epá babá oxalá axé!
A noite já vai chegar
Eis minha oferenda aos orixás
Para que eles possam avisar
Quem vem lá, quem vem lá? Oô
Acordos tratados de antemão
Mentiras, cobiça, traição
Liberdade? Promessas em vão
Só a morte ou a escravidão, Eê
Quem tratou de mudar
Como sempre, as regras do jogo?
Quem mandou recolher
De repente, as armas de fogo?
Epá babá oxalá axé!
Epá babá oxalá axé!
A noite já vai chegar
Eis minha oferenda aos orixás
Para que eles possam avisar
Quem vem lá, quem vem lá? Oô
