Retrato da Bahia

Portrait of Bahia
(Acarajé oh, oh, oh, oh)
Who arrives at Cayru Square
And looks up, what do they see?
They see the Lacerda Elevator
That keeps going up and down
It's the faithful portrait of Bahia
Bahian selling joy
Tasty little thing made of palm oil
(Acarajé oh, oh, oh, oh...)
It's the faithful portrait of Bahia
Bahian selling joy
Tasty little thing made of palm oil
There on the market ramp
A crowded sailboat
Lots of fruit in good portions
All good to eat
It's the faithful portrait of Bahia
Bahian selling joy
Tasty little thing made of palm oil
(Acarajé oh, oh, oh, oh)
