"Onde é que 'tá o meu avô
O meu avô, onde é que tá?"

"Onde é que 'tá meu bisavô
Meu bisavô, onde é que tá?"

Avô perguntou bisavô

Alapalá, egum, espírito elevado ao céu
Machado alado, asas do anjo Aganju

Machado astral, ancestral do metal
Do ferro natural
Do corpo preservado
Embalsamado em bálsamo sagrado
Corpo eterno e nobre de um rei nagô
Xangô
