Falsa Baiana [English translation]

A Bahian that enters the samba and just stands still

Doesn't samba, doesn't dance, doesn't shake or anything

Doesn't know how to leave the youth crazy

A Bahian is someone who enters the samba in any manner

That moves, shakes, makes a knot in their hips

Leaving the crowd salivating

When the fake Bahian enters the samba

Nobody is bothered, nobody claps

Nobody widens the circle, nobody shouts 'ôba'

Save the Bahia, Lord

But the people like when a Bahian

Does the samba well, up and down

She moves her little eyes saying

I am a daughter of São Salvador
