Poema 12 - Dia 12 de 30

Que viva la musica, que viva la vida!
There is beauty in life that can edge out the pain
Long live the flowers of life: to art, to la musica
Long live lasting love, the kind that keeps you sane

There is beauty in life that can edge out the pain
Cooling rain on a scorching day, the sun reflecting off melting snow
Long live lasting love, the kind that keeps you sane
Love that never asks you to forget your name, or where you want to go

Cooling rain on a scorching day, the sun reflecting off melting snow
Reminding you that the worst is over, or soon will be
Love that never asks you to forget your name, or where you want to go
Never forget who you are, dance all those plans and dreams

Reminding you that the worst is over, or soon will be
Someone to help you paint your life and make it brighter
Never forget who you are, dance all those plans and dreams
Put those hands up over your head and dance, dance - until you are lighter

Someone to help you paint your life and make it brighter
To play you a wild serenade as the early dawn flowers into dia
Put those hands up, over your head, and dance, dance - until you are lighter
Que viva la musica, que viva la vida!
