(M. Nascimento - Fernando Brant, 1980)
Morte, vela, sentinela sou
Do corpo desse meu irmo que j se vai
Revejo nessa hora tudo que ocorreu
Memria no morrer
Vulto negro em meu rimo vem
Mostrar a sua dor
Plantada nesse cho
Seu rosto brilha em reza
Brilha em faca e flor
Histrias vem me contar
Longe, longe, ouo essa voz
Que o tempo no levar
