Dá licença, dá licença, meu Senhô
Excuse me, excuse me, my Lord
Dá licença, dá licença, pra yôyô
Excuse me, excuse me, for yoyô
Eu sou amante da gostosa Bahía, porém
I'm a lover of the hot Bahía, however
Pra saber seu segredo
To know your secret
Serei Baiano também
I'll be Bahian too
Dá licença, De gostar um pouquinho só
Excuse me, Just to enjoy it a little
A Bahía eu não vou roubar, tem dó
I won't steal from Bahía, have pity
Já disse um poeta Que terra mais linda não há
A poet once said that there is no more beautiful land
Isso é velho e do tempo que a gente escrevia Bahía com H!
This is old and from the time we wrote Bahía with an H!
Deixa ver, com meus olhos
Let me see, with my eyes
De amante saudoso
Of a longing lover
A Bahía do meu coração
The Bahía of my heart
Deixa ver, baixa do Sapateiro Charriou, Barroquinha
Let's see, downtown Sapateiro Charriou, Barroquinha
Calçada, Tabuão

Sou um amigo que volta feliz Pra teus braços abertos, Bahía!
I am a friend who returns happily To your open arms, Bahía!
Sou poeta e não quero ficar Assim longe da tua magia!
I'm a poet and I don't want to be so far away from your magic!
Deixa ver, teus sobrados, igrejas
Let us see, your houses, churches
Teus santos, ladeiras
Your saints, slopes
E montes tal qual um postal
And mountains just like a postcard
Dá licença de rezar pro Senhor do Bonfim
Give permission to pray to Senhor do Bonfim
Salve! A Santa Bahía
Save! The Santa Bahia
imortal, Bahía dos sonhos mil!
immortal, Bahía of thousand dreams!
Eu fico contente da vida

Em saber que Bahía é Brasil!
Knowing that Bahía is Brazil!
Salve! A Santa Bahía imortal, Bahía dos sonhos mil!
