Life is Beautiful
There was a young girl long ago
Who lived a peaceful life untold
She understood that love was everything
The jungle took her far away
Where her daddy worked and she would play
With friends who taught her how to be a lady
She had no rings on her fingers
She had diamonds in her eyes
She had no money to be reckoned with
She had love within her life
And I heard her singing
CHORUS
Wouldn't you say
Wouldn't you say
Wouldn't you say
That life is beautiful
She sang of things that pleased her soul
She questioned life and made it known
She stored her knowledge deep inside her mind
She had no mansions on a hillside
She had castles in the sky
She had no gold for inheritance
She had time on her side
And I heard her singing
CHORUS
And as the years go by
That peaceful girl was I
And I'm still singing
CHORUS
Wouldn't you say
that life is beautiful
La vida es hermosa
Hubo una joven hace mucho tiempo
Que vivía una vida pacífica sin igual
Ella entendía que el amor lo era todo
La selva la llevó lejos
Donde su papá trabajaba y ella jugaba
Con amigos que le enseñaron a ser una dama
No tenía anillos en sus dedos
Tenía diamantes en sus ojos
No tenía dinero para ser tomado en cuenta
Tenía amor dentro de su vida
Y la escuché cantar
CORO
No dirías
No dirías
No dirías
Que la vida es hermosa
Ella cantaba de cosas que complacían su alma
Cuestionaba la vida y lo dejaba saber
Guardaba su conocimiento profundamente en su mente
No tenía mansiones en una colina
Tenía castillos en el cielo
No tenía oro como herencia
Tenía el tiempo de su lado
Y la escuché cantar
CORO
Y mientras pasan los años
Esa joven pacífica era yo
Y sigo cantando
CORO
No dirías
que la vida es hermosa
