Full lyrics
O vento deu por baixo
A saia da nega subiu
O vento deu por baixo
Em forma de currupio
Não ande desprevinida
Não tõ pouco de saia rode
Não quero ver, minha nega
O povo da rua sorri de você
O vento deu por baixo
A saia da nega subiu
O vento deu por baixo
Em forma de currupio
O vento foi insolente
Soprando com força demais
A nega segurava a saia na frente
E o vento levantava atrás
Translation
The wind blew from below
The woman's skirt went up
The wind blew from below
In a swirling motion
Don't walk unwary
Don't wear a skirt that twirls easily
I don't want to see, my dear
The people on the street laugh at you
The wind blew from below
The woman's skirt went up
The wind blew from below
In a swirling motion
The wind was insolent
Blowing with too much force
The woman held her skirt in front
And the wind lifted it from behind
