THE BEAUTY OF CARNIVAL

The samba schools
flowers on the boulevard
my heart restless
of emotion

It is pink is green
yellow is not gold
the greatest treasure
on earth

Rain sun beer
beauty dance
in the hands of revelers
without distinction of race
religion or position

Cadence impels me
My whole body trembles
it's time for freedom
love explosion

The colorful fills the eyes
the boy jumps of drums
loves coolness is time
forget the sorrow
this river of happiness

This beam of light is real
tambourine deaf and marking
redouram the illusions we
play stop time
and be truly happy
