Falsa Baiana
Roberto Silva
Fake Bahian
Bahian who enters the circle and just stands still
Doesn't sing, doesn't dance, doesn't move at all
Doesn't know how to drive the youth crazy.
Bahian is the one who joins the samba no matter what
Who moves, shakes, ties knots in the chairs
Leaving the kids drooling.
The fake Bahian when she joins the samba, no one minds
No one claps, no one opens the circle
No one shouts hooray, hail Bahia, Lord!
But we like it when a Bahian breaks it just right
From top to bottom, rolls her eyes
And says I am a daughter of Saint Salvado
