La Vita - Lyrics

Per amore                                      
a il cantore.                            
Lui che canta                                  
che la vita e bella.                           
Pace, pace.                                                                
La vita e dolce
Grazie, grazie                        
Dal cuore, grazie. 

For the sake of love,
listen to the singer
who sings
that life is beautiful.
Be at peace.
Life is sweet
From the depths of my heart,
I thank you.

And I work and I work all day and night
I wonder if I'm ever gonna get it right
I push and I push to get ahead
I know I gotta make my daily bread
 
And I know I don't have time to lose
I wonder if I really have time to choose
I barely have time to shed a tear
I hardly have time to shake the fear
 
And the body says "Remember you gotta breathe"
The body says "Take the time to grieve"
The mind says "Let the silence flow"
The mind says "Allow yourself to grow"
 
The spirit says "Cast your eyes above"
The spirit says " Fill your heart with love"
The heart says "Seek the light within"
The heart says "Let the dance begin"
 
And my mother says "Enjoy your life!"
"Enjoy your life, darling"
