Chegou a capital do samba

The capital of samba has arrived

Dando boa noite com alegria

Saying good evening with joy

Viemos lhe apresentar

We've come to present to you

O que a mangueira tem

Mocidade, samba e harmonia

Nossas baianas com seus colares e guias

Até parece que eu estou na bahia

It almost seems like I'm in Bahia

Na cidade alta da mangueira avisto a vila

Sinto saudades de alguém

Até parece que eu estou em são salvador

Avistando o que a bahia tem

Seeing what Bahia has

É a minha maior alegria

Até parece que eu estou na bahia

It almost seems like I'm in Bahia
