Que beleza é vir da pureza

E sem medo distinguir
And without fear to distinguish
O mal e o bem

Uh! Uh! Uh! Que beleza

Uh! Uh! Uh! Que beleza
Uh! Uh! Uh! What beauty
Que beleza é saber seu nome

Sua origem, seu passado

E seu futuro

Que beleza é conhecer

O desencanto

E ver tudo bem mais claro
And see everything much clearer
No escuro
In the dark
Uh! Uh! Uh! Que beleza
Uh! Uh! Uh! What beauty
Uh! Uh! Uh! Que beleza
Uh! Uh! Uh! What beauty
Abra a porta
Open the door
E vá entrando
And come on in
Felicidade vai
Happiness is coming
Brilhar no mundo
Shine in the world
Que beleza! Que beleza
What beauty! What beauty
Que beleza! Que beleza
What beauty! What beauty
