Lyrics - Portuguese
(Brazilian folk song)
Samba Lelê está doente
Está com a cabeça quebrada
Samba Lelê precisava
De umas dezoito lambadas
Samba, samba,
Samba ô Lelê
Pisa na barra da saia
English Translation
Sambalele is sick
He (or she) has a broken head
Sambalele needs
Eighteen spankings
Samba [Brazilian rhythm & dance], lele [expression of excitement]
Samba, samba, samba la la
Step on the hem of the skirt
