Brasil Pandeiro

Brazil Tambourine

Brasil Pandeiro

It's time for these tanned people to show their worthChegou a hora dessa gente bronzeada mostrar seu valor
I went to Penha, I went to ask the Patron Saint to help meEu fui a Penha, fui pedir a Padroeira para me ajudar
Save Vintém HillSalve o Morro do Vintém
Hang up your skirt, I want to seePendura a saia, eu quero ver
I want to see Uncle Sam play the tambourine for the world to sambaEu quero ver o Tio Sam tocar pandeiro para o mundo sambar

Uncle Sam wants to meet our batucadaO Tio Sam está querendo conhecer a nossa batucada
He's been saying that the Bahian sauce improved his dishAnda dizendo que o molho da baiana melhorou seu prato
It will be included in couscous, acarajé and abaráVai entrar no cuscuz, acarajé e abará
In the White House, the yo-yo drumming was already performed, iaiáNa Casa Branca já dançou a batucada de ioiô, iaiá

Brazil, warm up your tambourinesBrasil, esquentai vossos pandeiros
Light up the grounds where we want to sambaIluminai os terreiros que nós queremos sambar
There are those who dance differently in other landsHá quem sambe diferente noutras terras
Other people, a killer beatOutra gente, um batuque de matar

Batucada, I gathered your valuesBatucada, reuni vossos valores
Shepherdesses and singersPastorinhas e cantores
An expression that has no equal, oh, my BrazilExpressão que não tem par, ó, meu Brasil

Brazil, warm up your tambourinesBrasil, esquentai vossos pandeiros
Light up the grounds where we want to sambaIluminai os terreiros que nós queremos sambar
