Felicidade - Diana Panton

Tristesse, adieu tristesse un soir de carnaval

Oui, mais le bonheur n’est qu’une larme

Qui tremble sur le bord de chaque fleur

Brilliant dans l’ombre, à la fin elle tombe

Ce sont les premiers pleurs de notre cœur

Le bonheur du pauvre est vraiment dans l’ivresse

Que va lui donner le carnaval

Le pauvre travaille sans cesse, sans cesse

Pour oublier sa misère, au milieu de la lumière

Il est comme un prince à l’allure fière

Mais son bonheur finit après la nuit

Happiness must end, but sadness goes on and on

Happiness is like the dew drops on a flower

That sparkle for a moment in the dawn

Then fall like teardrops from the eyes of a young girl

Who cries to realize her lover’s gone

Poor people work all year to make one dream come true

To share a night of joy at Carnaval

They dress up as clowns and pirates and kings

They dance the night away, they’re still dancing at daybreak

As long as they dance, they can pretend

That happiness and Carnaval won’t end

Tristesse, adieu tristesse

Tristesse, adieu tristesse

Tristesse, adieu tristesse

Sadness, goodbye sadness on a carnival night

Yes, but happiness is only a tear

Which quivers on the edge of every flower

Shining in the shadows, in the end it falls

These are the first cries of our heart

The happiness of the poor is really in drunkenness

What will carnival give him

The poor work ceaselessly, ceaselessly

To forget his misery, in the middle of the light

He's like a proud looking prince

But her happiness ends after dark

Happiness must end, but sadness goes on and on

Happiness is like the dew drops on a flower

That sparkle for a moment in the dawn

Then fall like teardrops from the eyes of a young girl

Who cries to realize her lover's gone

Poor people work all year to make one dream come true

To share a night of joy at Carnival

They dress up as clowns and pirates and kings

They dance the night away, they're still dancing at daybreak

As long as they dance, they can pretend

That happiness and Carnival won't end

Sadness, goodbye sadness

Sadness, goodbye sadness

Sadness, goodbye sadness
