I love it too. I cry over it sometimes, I cry for Cubans because they're trapped. They can't leave. How can life be a carnival? I looked up how Cubans feel about being locked into their country and I think I read that people were happy thanks to family, friends, and culture, depending also on their income.
Thank you for posting this, I must point out that there are some typos in the English text where the word “signing” appears instead of “singing”. I noticed it a few times. But I want to thank you for this wonderful translation, I never realized that bottom line, this is a song that praises Gd. 🤸🏽♂️🤸🏽♂️🤸🏽♂️
Beautiful ❤! Thank you for posting this I’ve listened to this my whole life …never knew the words . I remember hearing this at my grandma Tonma”s house , 😢 I wish I would’ve learned Spanish and spent more time with her. 😢. Thank you 🙏 ❤
Small correction: carnaval means party. It is a more general term, not necessarily connected to the carnival ❤️ one of the reasons those lyrics are so motivating and beautiful
Spell check on some of the lines where it says …. Signing it should be singing … it’s just probably an auto correct thing … I like this translation but as it’s been inferred there is so much more to the meaning behind some of these lines … it’s become a Latin American anthem did you know she sang this in her 70s! Celia Cruz is a legend!! Positive grateful full of azucar forever! ❤gracias Celia for this gift
Wow I always loved this song just for the Rhythm, now that I know what she is saying.... tears are flowing and I'm not soft like that

now i know why this song makes my grandma cry
Ohhh there's no need to cry, because life's a carnival, and the sorrows go away singing
It made me cry because Cubans can't leave. Celia Cruz was an exception.
Beautiful lyrics and beat! Forever Celia Cruz! ❤
My husband who didn’t speak spouse

That's the thing about Spanish language, its interpretive!
Carnival is just as good
Carnaval means carnival... it doesn't mean party, party is fiesta, carnival is more than a party, the translation is just fine
