Quem é ateu
E viu milagres como eu
Sabe que os deuses sem Deus
Não cessam de brotar
Nem cansam de esperar
E o coração que é soberano e que é senhor
Não cabe na escravidão
Não cabe no seu não
Não cabe em si de tanto sim
É pura dança e sexo e glória
E paira para além da história
Ojúobá ia lá e via
Ojuobahia
Xangô manda chamar
Obatalá guia
Mamãe Oxum chora
Lágrimalegria
Pétala de Iemanjá
Iansã-Oiá ia
Ojuobá ia lá e via
Ojuobahia
Obá
É no xaréu
Que brilha a prata luz do céu
E o povo negro entendeu
Que o grande vencedor
Se ergue além da dor
Tudo chegou sobrevivente num navio
Quem descobriu o Brasil
Foi o negro que viu
A crueldade bem de frente e ainda produziu milagres
De fé no extremo Ocidente
