A cara o creu [English translation]

You want life and you have played for it;

You want to smile and you have tears.

You want love at once

When you truly love.

But, you already know that each day

Has its moments of light and sorrow.

You must take what comes to you with it all:

You must welcome both rain and sunshine.

[Chorus:]

Wanting to be quiet and passing by,

Knowing how to swallow a bitter pill

Or shouting loudly everywhere...

Living life playing heads or tails!

Amidst the ruins of war,

You shall find many stones...

Under the sun, on this earth,

They are nothing: they're a bit of misfortune.

But you take them one by one

And, with your willpower,

You can build above the ruins

A great new city!

[Chorus:]

Wanting to be quiet and passing by,

Knowing how to swallow a bitter pill

Or shouting loudly everywhere...

Living life playing heads or tails!

La-ra-ra-la-ra-la...

Or shouting loudly everywhere...

Living life playing heads or tails!
