No Tabuleiro da Baiana (part. Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil e Maria Bethânia)

On the Bahian woman's tray there is
Vatapá, oi, caruru
Mungunzá
There's umbu for yo-yo

If I ask, will you give it to me?
your heart
Your love, my dear?

In the heart of Bahian woman there is
Seduction, hey, canjerê
Illusion, hi
Candomblé, for you

I swear to God
By the Lord of Bonfim
I want you, little girl from Bahia
All for me

And then
What will become of us both?
Your love is so fleeting, so deceptive

I've already done everything
I even went to a canjerê
To be happy
I gathered my belongings with you

And then
It will be just another illusion
In love, who governs?
It's the heart

On the Bahian woman's tray there is

If I ask, will you give it to me? (I'll give it!)
your heart
Your love, my dear?

Your love is so fleeting, so deceptive

I've already done everything
I even went to a canjerê
To be happy
My rags will join with yours

And then
It will be just another illusion
And in love, who governs?
It's the heart
