It’s Always Carnival
lyrics by Emilio Fresedo
And it’s always carnival…
there are streamers falling down
some are thin and some are thick,
they just make us trip up.
And when the mask
of your costume is removed
from your innocent face,
all year long is carnival!
Long live the carnival!
You always see the little lights,
you are the eternal masquerade
that takes pleasure in playing tricks.
And when the mask
of your costume is removed
from your innocent face,
all year long is carnival!
Orquesta Osvaldo Fresedo, singer Roberto Ray
(Spanish original after the jump)
Siempre es carnaval
Y siempre es carnaval…
van cayendo serpentinas,
unas gruesas y otras finas
que nos hacen tambalear.
Y cuando en tu disfraz
la careta queda ausente
en tu cara de inocente,
todo el año es carnaval.
¡Y viva el carnaval!
Vos ves siempre lucecitas,
sos la eterna mascarita
que gozás con engañar.
Y cuando en tu disfraz
la careta queda ausente
en tu cara de inocente,
¡todo el año es carnaval!
