Lyrics

Español

Yo soy un ser optimista Tralalá, lalá, lalá, Y en este mundo egoísta Me divierto sin cesar. El sinsabor es un cuento Yo no sé lo que es llorar, Y siento en todo momento Una gran felicidad. Tralalá, tralalá, tralalá Todos a cantar... Tralalá, tralalá, tralalá Todos a bailar... Tralalá, tralalá, tralalá Para qué sufrir, Lo mejor es cantar y reír Tralalá, tralalá.

English · machine translation

I am an optimistic being Tralalá, lalá, lalá, And in this selfish world I am endlessly amused. The tastelessness is a fairy tale I don't know what it is to cry, And I feel at all times A great happiness. Tralalá, tralalalá, tralalalá, tralalalá Everybody sing... Tralalá, tralalalá, tralalalá, tralalalá Everybody dance... Tralalá, tralalalá, tralalalá, tralalalá Why suffer, It's best to sing and laugh Tralalá, tralalá, tralalá.
