Lyrics

S fica parada
No canta, no samba
No (bole) mexe, nem nada
No sabe deixar
A mocidade louca…
Baiana aquela
Que entra no samba
De qualquer maneira
Que mexe, remexe
D n nas cadeiras
E deixa a moada
Com gua na boca…
A falsa baiana
Quando (cai) entra no samba
Ningum se incomoda
Ningum bate palma
Ningum abre a roda
Ningum grita 'ba! salve
A Bahia, sinh!'
Mas a gente gosta
Quando uma baiana
(Quebra) requebra direitinho
De cima embaixo
(Revira) e vira os olhinhos
(E diz:) Dizendo 'Eu sou filha
De so Salvador

Lyrics translation

S stands still
No singing, no samba
No (bole) moves, or anything
Don't know how to leave
The crazy youth…
Bahiana that one
Who enters the samba
Anyway
That wiggles, Wiggles
D N in the chairs
And leaves the moada
With water in the mouth…
The Bahian false
When (Falls) enters the samba
No one bothers
Ningum high-fives
Ningum open the wheel
No shouts! save
Bahia, sinh!'
But we like
When a Bahian
(Breaks) requires right
From top to bottom
And turn your eyes
(And says:) saying ' I am daughter
From so Salvador
