Dar e Receber [English translation]

Giving... Giving...

Giving and receiving...

[Chorus:]

Giving! Giving!

(Giving! Giving!)

Giving and receiving...

It should be our way of living:

Giving and receiving!

Giving! Giving!

(Giving! Giving!)

Giving and receiving...

Make an exchange without winning or losing:

Giving and receiving!

Giving... Giving...

Conceding the right to every voice;

That respect which we want for ourselves.

Giving attention to our call;

A recompense to those who know how to listen.

Giving... Giving...

[Chorus:]

Giving! Giving!

(Giving! Giving!)

Giving and receiving...

It should be our way of living:

Giving and receiving!

Giving! Giving!

(Giving! Giving!)

Giving and receiving...

Make an exchange without winning or losing:

Giving and receiving!

Changing... Changing...

Changing the ideas so we can get to know

That candle that we want to light up.

Changing the environment, changing the dance,

Changing that gesture which adds more people to an alliance.

Exchanging bodies, swapping voices...

Changing the song so we're not singing alone!

Changing the environment, changing the dance,

Changing that gesture which adds more people to an alliance.

Changing the ideas so we can get to know

That candle that we want to light up.

Exchanging bodies, swapping voices...

Changing the song so we're not singing alone!

Changing... Changing...

Giving... Giving...

Giving and receiving...
