English Translation

Menina bonita baiana

Beautiful Bahian girl

Me joga na cama

Throw me on the bed

Camarão me chama iá iá

Shrimp calls me iá iá


Pra dançar afoxé no mangue

To dance afoxé in the mangrove

Onde não tem sangue

Where there's no blood

Caranguejo vem devagar

Crab comes slowly


Comandando a dança

Leading the dance

Não cansa virado pro lado

Doesn't tire turned to the side

Coitado tem que se mancar

Poor thing has to get it together


O cavalo manca,

The horse limps

Não manca calçando tamanco

Doesn't limp wearing clogs

Pisado em vatapá

Stepped on in vatapá


Iá iá, ió ió, amor, Ara

Iá iá, ió ió, love, Ara

Vem cá dengar, me amar

Come here to hear, to love me


Nativo habitando o morro

Native inhabiting the hill

Segura as encostas

Holding the slopes

Quem casa quer coça coçar

Who marries wants to scratch


Mas que casa, casa contente

But what a house, happily married

Quem cala consente

Who is silent consents

Menina vamos serenar

Girl, let's calm down
