O velho batuqueiro está em festa
Pra comemorar com devoção
A paz de Deus, que reina no meu peito
E a luz divina, no meu coração
Oi chora viola, ô viola chora
Oi chora viola, ô viola chora
Você chora quando eu canto
Ai ai, e a tristeza vai-se embora
Como e bonito ver o manto divino
Fazer pousada sob a luz do candeeiro
E a festança desse povo peregrino
Com seus Batuques e os violeiros
