O ariá rai, O?


Obá, Obá, Obá,


O (o, o, o, o,) ariá rai, O?


Obá, Obá, Obá...

CHORUS 1
***********

Mas que nada


Sai da minha frente eu quero passar


Pois o samba está animado


O que eu quero é sambar


Este samba que é misto de maracatu


é samba de preto velho


Samba de preto tu



***********
CHORUS 2:
***********

Mas que nada


Um samba como esse do legal


Você no vai querer


Que eu chegue no final

********************************
English Translation (very rough)
********************************


Oh, little song, what are you?
What? What? What?


More of that nothing

It wants to pass in front of me

To liven up the samba



What I want to do is to samba

This samba, the samba of veiled color

the mix of your maracas,

the samba of antique veiled color



More of that nothing,

a samba that's just barely legal

You start wanting to go into it

then arriving at the end
