Há quem sambe muito bem
There are those who sing very well
Há quem sambe por gostar
There are those who samba because they like it
Há quem sambe por ver os outros sambar
There are those who samba to see others samba
Mas eu não sambo para copiar ninguém
But I don't do it to copy anyone
Eu sambo mesmo com vontade de sambar
I samba even though I want to samba
Porque no samba eu sinto o corpo remexer
Because in samba I feel my body move
E é só no samba que eu sinto prazer
And it's only in samba that I feel pleasure
É só no samba que eu sinto prazer
It's only in samba that I feel pleasure
Há quem não goste de samba
Some people don't like samba
Não dá valor, não sabe compreender
Doesn't value it, doesn't know how to understand
O samba quente, harmonioso e buliçoso
Hot, harmonious and boisterous samba
Mexe com a gente e dá vontade de viver
It moves us and makes us want to live
A minoria diz que não gosta mas gosta
The minority says they don't like it but they like it
E sofre muito quando vê alguém sambar
And he suffers a lot when he sees someone samba
Faz força, se domina, finge não estar

Tomadinho pelo samba, louco pra sambar
Taken by samba, crazy to samba
