Mi Vida Es Cantar
Celia Cruz
My Life Is Singing
Singing for me is like being
The owner of the universe,
Being able to express with my voice
What I carry inside.
Making you feel
Grandiose sensations,
And in seven notes combine,
Singing many things.
And when the magic of a sound,
Slowly invades the heart,
I wrap myself in its tasty rhythm,
And the feeling.
I feel the drums playing
And my body doesn't stop dancing.
Letting myself be carried away by the beat,
How good I feel.
Because singing, I carry it inside.
Singing I travel the world,
Giving it feeling.
Because singing, I carry it inside.
Three loves I have inside
Of my joyful heart.
Because singing, I carry it inside.
Beautiful Cuba, the son, the rumba
And my little cotton head.
Because singing, I carry it inside.
What I am, is God's grace.
His love gave me this talent,
That I offer you with my voice, with my voice.
