Viver
Candeia
To Live
La la ia la ia
La la ia la ia la
I say and I can even affirm
Those who samba live better
I walk down the street singing
And the moonlight comes to adorn
Yes, I'm spreading joy
So that Lady Sadness can be happy
Open the window of your chest
And let my samba pass
Samba has no prejudice
And it will soon free you
The freedom from tears
And from the disappointments that life has given us
The freedom I sing is love and hope
For those who have suffered
Everyone who looks back
Will see that there is always a reason to live
Those who fight for peace
True peace will never be
Sing everyone as I do
Forgive the failures
Life is so short
While fighting, samba as well
Cold moonlit night
End of dawn
Happily I sing
Singing the joy that samba contains
La la ia la ia
La la ia la ai la
I say and I can even affirm
Those who samba live better
