Não deixe o samba morrer
Maria Rita
Don't let the samba die
When I can't
Step on the avenue anymore
When my legs
Can't bear it
Carry my body
Along with my samba
My bamba ring
I give to whoever deserves to wear
I'll stay
In the middle of the people, watching
My school
Losing or winning
One more carnival
Before saying goodbye
I leave to the youngest sambista
My final request
Before saying goodbye
I leave to the youngest sambista
My final request
Don't let the samba die
Don't let the samba end
The hill was made of samba
Of samba, for us to dance...
