Somos Todos Iguais Nesta Noite [English translation]

All of us are equal this evening

In the coldness of a painted laughter

In the certainty of a dream that's over

Here's the circus once again...

We live under the tent

Amidst swords and fire wheels.

Amidst lights and the dancing of the colors.

Where actors are at...

Tell the band

To play a dobrado1

Here we are at the ring again

Ask for the band

To play a Dobrado

Let's dance one more time...

Ask the band

To play a Dobrado

Look at us again at the riding arena

Ask for the band

To play a Dobrado

Let's enter it one more time...

All of us are equal this evening

Through the daily rehearsal of a drama

Through fear of rain and mud

Here's the circus once again...

We live under the cloth

For the wizards' badly done trick

For the whip of the tamers

And the roll of the drums...

Ask the band

To play a Dobrado

Look at us again at the riding arena

Ask for the band

To play a Dobrado

Let's enter it one more time...

Ask the band

To play a Dobrado

Look at us again at the riding arena

Ask for the band

To play a Dobrado

Let's enter it one more time...
