lyrics

Okê

Ê Okê Aro, Okê meu pai
O rei de Ketu, que rege a paz
Das coisas da mata e ao lado de Ogum Que vai com uma flecha
E gosta de Axoxô
Tá aqui, e lá
Trazendo fartura
Suas cores são, são verde e azul Em plena beleza
No rio e nas matas e é
O padroeiro da linha de caboclos
Ê Okê, ê caboclo Okê Arô, meu pai.
