Ah! Se o mundo inteiro me pudesse ouvir
Ah! If the whole world could hear me
Tenho muito pra contar
I have so much to tell
Dizer que aprendi
To say that I've learned
E, na vida, a gente tem que entender
And, in life, we have to understand
Que um nasce pra sofrer
That one is born to suffer
Enquanto o outro ri
While the other laughs
Mas quem sofre sempre tem que procurar
But those who suffer always have to seek
Pelo menos vir achar
At least come to find
Razão para viver
A reason to live
Ver na vida algum motivo pra sonhar
To see in life some reason to dream
Ter um sonho todo azul
To have a dream all in blue
Azul da cor do mar
Blue like the color of the sea
Mas quem sofre sempre tem que procurar
But those who suffer must always seek
Pelo menos vir achar
At least to find
Razão para viver
A reason to live
Ver na vida algum motivo pra sonhar
To see in life some reason to dream
Ter um sonho todo azul
To have a dream all in blue
Azul da cor do mar
Blue like the color of the sea
