I assume you mean Brazilian Samba? They do speak Portuguese in Brazil, and it would be more likely to come from there.
Could it be my favourite Mas que Nada?

You could also try listening to lots of samba songs to see of one of them matches the one in your head. Failing that, you might find another samba that will suit your purpose. Start here.

Do you read music dots. Can you convert what you hear in your head to ABC notation or post a MIDI or MP3 of you playing/humming on a web site?
All or any of these might help one of us to spot your tune.
Quack!

Can someone please help me fish for the Title, Lyrics and artist of a supposed Portuguese samba number that I can only hum two measures from? After exhaustive internet searches and research the only solution I can think of is to sing the small portion of this song over the phone to someone who thinks they might be able to help me identify it. I have heard the song various places so it isn't utterly obscure. PLEASE HELP! I need the song for a musical revue I'm writing.

Cheers,
