Se escucha el sonar de tambores
Llamando a la misa al que tenga fe
En medio de la noche oscura
Avanzan los fieles con rumbo al bembé

Una canción bien hará
Ecos de un viejo cantar
Olofin lo vigila todo
Viendo pa' alante y pa' atrás

Y sigue vibrando la noche
Golpe de cachingo y campana ogán
Los fieles se agarran las manos
Sus gargantas cantan un coro inmortal

Protegiendo al que está enfermo (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Pa' que la salud recobre (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Y a los que nada tienen (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Protegiendo al que está pobre (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)

Dale agua y dale amor (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Amarillo es un color (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Cuida Orisha

Salcea, Salcedo

Hija de Obatalá (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Viaja con Orunmila (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Dale agua y dale amor (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Ella te quita el dolor (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)

Suena campana de Ogán (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
En medio 'e la noche oscura (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Con el cachimbo yamangó (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
Los fieles van avanzando (Aché, Ochún y Oyó)
