Firma o batuque YoYo abre a roda YaYa
Pai maior chamou, vai começar
É canto e dança, é ritual
Vai ter São Lucas e jongo no carnaval
Bate o tambor vem ver, adorê, Adorê!
Toda magia na essência ancestral!
É Bantu de Congo e Angola
Resistência quilombola
Que brotou no cafezal!
Sob a Lua de Luanda um canto no ar
Sagrada chama ilumina o terreiro
Ngoma faz o couro esquentar!
Repinica candongueiro
Preta velha, vovó, axé
Cura o corpo e lava a alma na fé
Dsongo flecha certeira
Na ginga sacode as cadeiras
Santo Antônio sagrado é
Toca o caxambu, Saravá Saravá
Agora é hora vamos louvar
Toca o caxambu, É pura tradição
Alimento da alma, corpo e coração
Ê Jongueiro ê, pinga que o couro vai comer
É do terreiro lá do meu interior
Que vem a luta pela “causa” sim senhor
É cultura, é história
Legado de mestre na memória
