Na baixa do sapateiro eu encontrei um dia
In the downtown cobbler I found one day
A morena mais frajola da bahia
The most frajola brunette from Bahia
Pedi-lhe um beijo, não deu
I asked him for a kiss, he didn't give a kiss
Um abraço, sorriu
A hug, smiled
Pedi-lhe a mão
I asked for his hand
Não quis dar, fugiu
I didn't want to give, ran away
Bahia, terra da felicidade
Bahia, land of happiness
Morena, eu ando louco de saudade
Brunette, I've been crazy with longing
Meu senhor do bonfim
My lord of bonfim
Arranje outra morena igualzinha pra mim
Get another brunette just like me
Amor, ai
Love, ai
Amor bobagem
Love nonsense
Que a gente não explica, ai, ai
That we don't explain, ai, ai
Prova um bocadinho, ô
Try a little, oh
Fica envenenado, ô
It gets poisoned, ô
E pro resto da vida é um tal de sofrer
And for the rest of his life he's such a suffer
Ôlará, ôleré
Ôlará, oleré
Ô bahia
Ô bahia
Bahia que não me sai do pensamento
Bahia that does not come out of my thought
Ouve o meu lamento, ô
Listen to my lament,
Na desesperança, ô
In hopelessness, ô
De encontrar nesse mundo
To find in this world
Um amor que eu perdi na bahia, vou contar
A love I lost in bahia, I'll tell you
Ô bahia
Ô bahia
Bahia que não me sai do pensamento
Bahia that does not come out of my thought
