Lyrics
O God save the oratory
O God save the oratory
Where God made the habitation,
O, my God, where God made the habitation, o
Where the blessed calyx lives
Where the blessed calyx lives
And the blessed Eucharistic bread O, my God,
and the blessed Eucharistic bread, o
From Jesse was born the rod
From Jesse was born the rod
And from the rod the flower was born
O, my God, from the rod the flower was born, o
From the flower Mary was born
From the flower Mary was born
From Mary the Savior, O, my God,,
from Mary the Savior, o

Pickup of Brazilian folklore and adapted by Tavinho Moura, an internationally recognized musician from Minas Gerais State, the song Calix Bento spread further in the voice of the renowned singer-songwriter Milton Nascimento, being recorded by him in 1976. Inserted in the manifestations of Folia de Reis (popular Christmas auto, of Portuguese origin, recalling the visit of the three Magi to the infant Jesus), Calix Bento is also an expression of the faith of the people, praising the Child Jesus and the Our Lady.
