Canta y sé feliz

Sing and be happy

Alegría, si quéreis tener, cantar, alegría de vivir Joy, if you want to have, sing the joy of living
Para disfrutar, cantar, canta y sé feliz To enjoy, sing, sing and be happy
  
Si la canción que yo canto no te llena de alegría If the song I sing doesn't fill you with joy
Por más cosas que te diga (No sirve de ná') The more I tell you something (It's useless)
Si no tienes quien te quiera If you don't have someone who loves you
Ni a quien decirle "te quiero" Or someone to say "I love you"
Buscar amor con dinero (No sirve de ná') To search for love with money (It's useless)
  
Si eres tan inteligente que nadie puede entenderte If you're so intelligent that no one understands you
Enfadarte con la gente (No sirve de ná') To get mad at people (It's useless)
Si al sol no puedes tumbarte y en paz tomar una copa If you can't lie in the sun and take a drink in peace
Decir que estás en Europa (No sirve de ná') To say you're in Europe (It's useless)
No sirve de ná', no sirve de ná', no sirve de ná' It's useless, it's useless, it's useless
  
Cantar a la vida si quéreis tener, cantar Sing to life if you want to have, sing
Alegría de vivir The joy of living
Para disfrutar, cantar, canta y sé feliz To enjoy, sing, sing and be happy
Cantar conmigo para tener, cantar Sing with me to have, sing
Alegría de vivir The joy of living
Para disfrutar, cantar, canta y sé feliz To enjoy, sing, sing and be happy
  
Si para olvidar las penas necesitas tomar vino If you have to drink wine to forget your sorrows
No lo hagas buen amigo (No sirve de ná') Don't do it my good friend (It's useless)
Si le paras a una rubia cuando vas por la autopista If you stop for a blond girl when you're on the motorway
Y luego es un estopista (No sirve de ná') But it appears to be a hitch-hiker (It's useless)
No sirve de ná', no sirve de ná', no sirve de ná' It's useless, it's useless, it's useless
  
Cantar a la vida si quéreis tener, cantar Sing to life if you want to have, sing
