Viva
He was always here to stay
In an ordinary paradise
And the world was always moving along
Beyond a temporary sign of the times
When he found out that the world is in motion
He hid behind his mother's thighs
There was life beyond the divide that
Kept him from seeing the other side
Si vive la lluvia y el carnaval
Me deja vivir y me deja gozar
Si vive el club y la copa mundial
Que viva la favela en el país tropical
Si vive la cruz y el hombre militar
Que viva la gente y viva su libertad
When he was set free to choose between the strangest of crews
He emptied his pockets and filled up his mind
And the world began to change in colors and in names
Into nothing he could recognize
When he recalled that the world is in motion
It grabbed him from his beating heart
There was life in every fall and every rise that
Brought him closer to the pulse of the times
Si vive la lluvia y el carnaval
Me deja vivir y me deja gozar
Si vive el club y la copa mundial
Que viva la favela en el país tropical
Si vive la cruz y el hombre militar
Que viva la gente y viva su libertad
Si vive el perfume y el traje formal
Que viva el sudor cuando nos ponemos a bailar
Si vive el sol y la nave espacial
Que viva el mestizaje en el mural de la ciudad
Si vive el dolor y la soledad
Me deja vivir y me deja despertar
Despertar en la lluvia del carnaval
Con la fuerza de un vendaval
Despertar, despertar, despertar, despertar!
In an ordinary paradise

Beyond a temporary sign of the times
When he found out that the world is in motion

Si vive la lluvia y el carnaval
Me deja vivir y me deja gozar
Si vive el club y la copa mundial
Que viva la favela en el país tropical
Si vive la cruz y el hombre militar

Que viva el mestizaje en el mural de la ciudad
Si vive el dolor y la soledad
Me deja vivir y me deja despertar
Despertar en la lluvia del carnaval
Con la fuerza de un vendaval
Despertar, despertar, despertar, despertar!
