by Antônio Tavernard (1908 - 1936)

Ecos selvagens
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Batuque mazombo paródia de Bombo
Retumba batuque mazombo enquanto
A pretada luzindo suada prepara a
Macumba. ó minha, ó santa donzela
Pum, pum, pum, pum, pum, pum
Di rouca amarela pum, pum, pum,
Pum, pum, pum.
Ô santa donzela que bela tu é
Ti apressa te achega
Tem pena dessa nega e aqui tanto te que
Ti apressa te achega ê ê estruge
O batuque a força de muque batido a vigor
Roda se torce, contorce, retorce
Jibóia de horror.
Faça qui ele si coce si pele somente
Somente por eu e que tudo o que
Tenha de mim só que venha qui seje
Só o meu ô ao vento de açoite repassam
Morcegos que vão e morcegos que vem
E tal como se a noite mais negra que os
Negros sambassem também ô.
