Full lyrics
Pelo carnaval eu perdi o meu amor
O carnaval passou e fiquei desamparado
Ela queria uma linda fantasia
Porem faltou um zero no meu ordenado
Se não é isso uma riquissima Bahiana teria lhe dado
Se não é isso uma riquissima Bahiana teria lhe dado
Ela não se conformou
Logo desapareceu
Nem satisfação me deu
Até hoje não voltou
Ela foi vista lá no bolo preta fazendo passo
Com um moço pregado em seu braço
E ele gritava é com esse que eu vou
Translation
During Carnival I lost my love
Carnival passed and I was left helpless
She wanted a beautiful costume
But a zero was missing from my salary
If not for that, a very rich Bahian woman would have given it to her
If not for that, a very rich Bahian woman would have given it to her
She didn't accept it
Soon she disappeared
She didn't even give me an explanation
She hasn't returned to this day
She was seen there at the black street party doing steps
With a young man clinging to her arm
And he was shouting "it's with this one I'm going!"
