It's definitely Spanish from Spain.  "Bailao" is a regional pronounciation for the word "bailado" (danced).  Is that the complete sentence?\n\nI've heard the sentence "Lo bailado (or bailao) nadie me lo quita" (literally "nobody can take away from me what I have danced", meaning "what I have enjoyed (the good time I had) cannot be taken away from me").\n\nSo, back to your original sentence, the literal translation would be "have what you have danced (or enjoyed) taken away from you".

Las Posadas---a reinactment of the Holy family trying to find a room in Bethlehem. People process from house to house in communities---sing, pray, and enjoy special foods.\n\nTamales are a great Christmas meal item. Attending Midnight Mass is also very popular. Gifts for Dia de Los Reyes on January 6 is more popular in some parts of Mexico than gifts on Christmas which is set aside for church.

Mexican Independence Day\n\nMexican Independence Day is the culmination of the Fiesta Patrias, a\nfestival celebrating Mexico's independence from Spain. The festival\nreaches a dramatic peak on September 15 at 11:00 p.m. when the President\nappears on the balcony of the National Palace to recite the Grito de\nDolores. This "cry of Dolores" recreates the speech given by Don Miguel\nHidalgo y Costillo on September 15,1810.\n\nHidalgo called for Mexican self-rule and a revolt against Spain. He was\ncaptured and executed by Spanish troops in 1811 and Mexico did not win\nindependence from Spain until 1821.\n\nIndependence Day is celebrated on September 16 with fireworks, parades,\nand ringing of cathedral bells.\n\n&&&&\n\nRemembering Independance\n\n16 de Septiembre\n\nThe 16th of September of 1810, marks the beginning of Mexico's struggle\nfor independance from Spain. Hence, this day is similar in many ways to\nthe American "4th of July," which commemorates American Independance\nfrom Britain.\n\n"El Grito de Dolores," (The cry in the village named Dolores-Sorrows-.)\n"Long live Independance! Long live America! Death to bad Government!"\n\nThis proclamation for Independance was made on this day by Miguel\nHidalgo, from the Balcony of the Parish of Nuestra Senora de Los\nDolores. (Our Lady of Sorrows.)\n\nA heroic Parish Priest, who is widely regarded as the Father of Mexican\nIndependance and a symbol of patriotism, Miguel Hidalgo De Costilla was\nresponsible for leading the first large revolutionary forces against the\nSpaniards. Tragically, however, shortly thereafter, he was captured and\nexecuted by a firing squad.\n\nFather Hidalgo's martyrdom, however, galvanized the Mexican people to\nstruggle and fight for independance. After Father Hidalgo's demise, Jose\nMaria Morelos, a small village priest, and a farseeing political and\nmilitary genius, rallied the revolutionary forces until his capture and\nexecution on December 22, 1815.\n\nHistorians sum up his service to the cause of Mexican independance by\nstating that "with him ended the heroic days of the Mexican Revolution."\n\nAs he read of the guerilla leader's brilliant campaigns, the French\nEmperor, Napoleon Bonaparte said," with three such men as Jose Morelos,\nI could conquer the world."\n\nVicente Guerrero, a liberal rebel and the inheritor of the\nHidalgo/Morelos tradition, continued the revolutionary struggle against\nthe Spaniards until 1824, when the Spanish were overthrown and Guadalupe\nVictoria, a liberal became the first elected president of the Republic\nof Mexico.\n\nAt the time, the Mexican Empire encompased all of Central America and\nthe Southwestern United States including California, New Mexico,\nArizona, Texas, Colorado, Nevada, Utah and parts of what now is the\nState of Kansas. There is even today great controversy and debate as to\nthe questionable, and perhaps unethical political means, the United\nStates used to acquire this vast territory from Mexico. A few Spanish\nland grants still survive today , and Hispanic land grant heirs still\nargue the United States should be forced to honor land rights they were\npromised in the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the\nMexican War.\n\nTo commemorate these revolutionary heroes, Mexico named three states\nafter them. Hidalgo, is a state just North of Mexico City, whereas\nGuerrero and Morelos are two adjacent states in Mexico's West coast.\nIn addition, many hospitals, schools and colleges, state and federal\nparks, universities and government buildings have been named to honor\nthese three Mexican Revolutionary Heroes - Hidalgo, Morelos, and\nGuerrero.\n\n&&&&\n\nHidalgo’s Call for Mexican\n                      Independence\n\n\n            ¡Mexicanos, Viva México!\n\n\n\n            Shortly before dawn on September 16, 1810,\n            Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla made a monumentous\n            decision

Cinco de Mayo, Spanish for "May 5," commemorates the Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.\n\nLed by General Ignacia Zaragoza Sequin, a poorly-armed Mexican army of 4,500 stopped and defeated 6,500 well-armed French soldiers.\n\nThe battle halted the invasion of the country and is the cause for the date's celebration each year.\n\n"It was especially important because it was the first Mexican victory against the French, who hadn't lost a battle in 50 years," said Andrea Gaeth, a sophomore in Spanish and president of Ohio State's Spanish club. "The Americans came to their aid after this battle to remove the French for good and thus began an alliance between the United States and Mexico."\n\nThis holiday is not, as many Americans think, Mexico's Independence Day, which is actually celebrated Sept. 16.\n\n"It's one of two independence days," said Derek Petrey, a senior lecturer in Spanish. "There's a traditional day celebrated in September and this day, which celebrates a famous victory over the French army."\n\nCinco de Mayo is celebrated more in the United States than in Mexico since Mexicans hold Sept. 16 as their true independence day.\n\n"It's more of an informal holiday," Petrey said. "It's not as important in Mexico. It's actually bigger with the Latino population here."\n\nMagdalena Mejia, a Spanish teaching assistant from Puebla, Mexico, said Cinco de Mayo is more of a Chicano holiday.\n\nChicanos are people who were born in the United States but whose parents are from Mexico.\n\n"They have a very strong culture in this country," Mejia said, "and they wanted to have their own holiday. Cinco de Mayo is their party

Asuming that you mean December 12th... I'd say that the most important celebration is in Mexico: la Virgen de Guadalupe.

Cinco de Mayo is widely celebrated by Mexican-Americans and their descendants in the United States. Many cities with significant Mexican and Chicano populations throughout the US schedule special events on the 5th of May. In Los Angeles, most notably, revelers fill the streets in front of City Hall for speeches and performances by Mexican entertainers on this day.\n\nAlthough the celebration of this holiday has historically been limited to Latin-American communities, particularly in the southwest, it has become increasingly popular across the country and among all ethnic groups in the last 10 years. In recent years, it has been celebrated widely and in a similar style as St. Patrick’s Day — namely a celebration and identification with Mexicans, their culture, food, and music by Anglos and other unrelated ethnic groups. However, many Americans have only a cursory understanding of the significance of this day; it is often mistakenly assumed to be Mexico’s independence day, and in practice, it is usually celebrated on a superficial level.\n\nHope this helps.
