Translation of the song lyrics Mulata Do Balaio - Clara Nunes

Mulata Do Balaio (original)

Ê banana ouro, ê banana prata
Bamboleando o balaio, lá vai a mulata
Balançando por onde passa
A prata dos balagãndas
Deixando um cheirinho tão bom de banana maçã
Ê banana ouro, ê banana prata… bis
Quando ele passa na praça
Com seu samburá, pelo chão
Deixa um chamego que é pra nego escorregar
E na ginga quando se endominga pra ir passear
Deixa branco e nego zonzo
Gemendo nos gons e morrendo de amar
Ê banana ouro, ê banana prata… bis
Ela de bata rendada sobre o camisu
Leva dois fios de contas
Um de ouro e o outro azul
E o balaio vai bamboleando pra lá e pra cá
Pondo branco e nego zonzo
Gemendo nos gons e morrendo de amar
Ê banana ouro, ê banana prata… bis

Mulata Do Balaio (translation)

It's golden banana, it's silver banana
Wobbling the balaio, there goes the mulata
Swinging wherever you go
The silver of the balagandas
Leaving such a good smell of apple banana
It's golden banana, it's silver banana... bis
When he passes by the square
With your samburá, on the floor
Leave a cuddle that is for Nego slipping
And in the ginga when dressing to go for a walk
Leave it white and I deny dizzy
Moaning in the gons and dying of loving
It's golden banana, it's silver banana... bis
She wears a lace gown over her shirt
Takes two strands of beads
One of gold and the other blue
And the balaio is waddling back and forth
I put on white and I deny dizzy
Moaning in the gons and dying of loving
It's golden banana, it's silver banana... bis
