Bailou no ar
O ecoar de um canto de alegria!
Três princesas africanas
Na sagrada Bahia
Iá Kalá, Iá Detá, Iá Nassô
Cantaram assim a tradição Nagô
Olorum! Senhor do infinito!
Ordena que Obatalá
Faça a criação do mundo
Ele partiu desprezando bará
E no caminho adormecendo se perdeu
Odudua
A divina senhora chegou
E ornada de grande oferenda
Ela transfigurou
Cinco galinhas d'angola e fez a terra
Pombos brancos criou o ar
Um camaleão dourado transformou em fogo
E caracóis no mar
Ela desceu por cadeias de prata
Em viagem iluminada
Esperando Obatalá chegar
Ela é rainha
Ele é rei e vem lutar
Iê,rê,rê, iê, rê, ie,rê, ôôôô
Travam um duelo de amor
E surge a vida com seu esplendor
Iê,rê,rê, iê, rê, ie,rê, ôôôô
Travam um duelo de amor
E surge a vida com seu esplendor
