La Vida Es Bonita

Héctor Lavoe Héctor Lavoe

Life is Beautiful

I sing the songs
That the people need
And I tell them that life is beautiful

(To live, without feeling ashamed of living happily)
(Sing, and even if everyone opposes, try to live)
(I know, the street is tough, but it will change)
(That's why nothing stops me from repeating)
(That life is beautiful and it's beautiful)
Ayayayai

(To live, without feeling ashamed of living happily)
(Sing, and even if everyone opposes, try to live)
(I know, the street is tough, but it will change)
(That's why nothing stops me from repeating)
(That life is beautiful and it's beautiful)

Oh, brother
Oh, brother, let's talk about the truth
Let's converse now that the children are not around
And at any moment they can come back

Oh, brother
Oh, brother, tell me why
When a child asks what love is like
There's a fist that clenches in my heart

Where are those old poets
Who spoke of love
Where are the women
Who dreamed of flowers
Where are the cheerful songs
That the people sang

They only talked about love
And they lived a little better, but I feel it's about to change
That people want to embrace
And hope is growing again, which always
Is achieved by looking towards God

I would like to leave the children
A world of joy, peace, and love
And to look forward to the future, for a world
That lives better

(Oh oh oh, brother)
Take each other's hands
(And let's sing loudly)
The luck will change
(Oh oh oh, brother)
With me they ring

Let's sing the songs, that the people need
If life is beautiful and it's beautiful

(To live, without feeling ashamed of living happily)
(Sing)
And sing and sing
(And even if everyone opposes, try to live)
(I know)
I know, I know
(That the street is tough but it will change)
(That's why nothing stops me from repeating)
(That life is beautiful and it's beautiful)
Ayayayai

(To live, without feeling ashamed of living happily)
La la la la
(Sing)
And sing and sing
(And even if everyone opposes, try to live)
(I know)
I know
(That the street is tough but it will change)
(That's why nothing stops me from repeating)
(That life is beautiful and it's beautiful)
Ayayayai

(To live, without feeling ashamed of living happily)
(Sing and even if everyone opposes, try to live)
(I know, the street is tough, but it will change)
(That's why nothing stops me from repeating)
(That life is beautiful and it's beautiful)
