Vou Embora Pra Bahia
Mestre Matias
I'm Going to Bahia
Hi living here far away
I don't want to stay anymore,
I'm going back to Bahia,
Salvador is my place.
Chorus 2x
I'm leaving,
I'm leaving,
there to Bahia, city of Salvador.
Hospitable city,
land of much axé
land of samba reggae,
capoeira and candomblé.
Chorus 2x
Land of Mestre Bimba,
creator of the regional, and also,
Mestre Pastinha,
traditional angola.
Chorus 2x
In Salvador it's land of mandingueiro,
there's a circle in the market,
Sé square and in the terreiro.
Chorus 2x
