What does "paranaue-parana" mean? I know it's a call in capoeira
music. But what are the words, and do they mean something?
How about "sim-sim-sim"?
Thanks--

I'm sorry that you were disappointed. If you had asked that question,
I might have tried to find something on that subject.

Some people translate Paran as "river," but most don't translate it
at all because it's the name of a particular river.
"Paran Paran Paran "
"It's the river Paran It's the river, it's the river"

I hope this helps.Good work, Juggler. Thank you. I did search this one myself, but all
I found were the words, not a translation.
