Taboo [la lambada] [English translation]

Blue Bahia!

The rustle of bodies to the beat of the music

A & X !

Taboo !

(Heat !)

Wow how depressing!

(Passion!)

Don't cry over him!

(Don't cry over him!)

The girl who once made me cry has now gone away crying

The girl who once made me cry has now gone away crying

Crying, she recalled the love

That she once took for granted (hay loba!)*

Crying, she recalled the love

That she once took for granted (Brazil!)

The memory will be with her wherever she goes

The memory will be with her wherever she goes

Dance, sun and sea, I will keep them in sight

The love that you will want to find

By dancing the lambada I will remember that this love

Was, for a day, for a moment, more important than anything else

Alone in San Pablo at night, the moon, the stars

The beach, the sand to make me forget her

A mermaid saying

she's basking in the sunlight

Uh! Oh-oh!

A body that asks, shouting

Samba and heat!

Uh! Ohi oh!

My baby, shake!

A waist on fire!

My baby, shake!

Don't wear yourself out

Dance like that

My baby, shake!

Ron da fao, ron da fao*

My baby, shake!

Matadora!*

My baby, shake!

Bury me in the slums

Bury me in the slums

Bury me in the slums

Blue Bahia!

A & X!

March over to Brazil!

Don't cry over him!
