Lyrics
Ay ay ay Maria
Maria van Bahia
Alle jonge harten kloppen sneller voor Maria
Zij lachte tegen iedereen
Maar ieder dacht meteen
Dat het was voor hem alleen
Ay ay ay Maria
Maria van Bahia
Wie leidde het bal
Met carnaval, dat was Maria
En elke man raakte van streek
Werd rood en daarna bleek
Als hij naar haar dansen keek
De tambourijnen klonken luid
En iedere man dacht aan Maria als zijn bruid
De mannen vochten om die mooie vrouw
En ieder riep: ik hou van jou
Toen iedere man zijn toekomstplan al had gebouwd
Zich als Maria’s eega had beschouwd
Toen was Maria stilletjes getrouwd
Lyrics translation
Ay ay Ay Maria
Maria of Bahia
All young hearts beat faster for Mary
She laughed at everyone.
But everyone thought straight away
That it was for him alone
Ay ay Ay Maria
Maria of Bahia
Who led the ball?
With carnival, that was Maria.
And every man got upset
Turned red and then pale
When he watched her dance
The tambourines sounded loud
And every man thought of Mary as his bride
The men fought over that beautiful woman
And everyone shouted, " I love you."
When every man had already built his future plan
Considered herself Mary's wife
Then Maria was quietly married
