Vuela Alto [English translation]

Attaining a goal takes work

and it takes so much to get there

and when you've finally arrived

staying there takes more work.

Try not to let your guard down

or look backwards,

or everything you've achieved

they will take away from you.

Nothing is free here

everything has a high price

a step upwards,

is a step for which you must pay.

Here you have to dance to everything

without ever losing your step

they tend to let go of your hand

if they see you going down.

Fly friend, fly high

don't be a seagull in the ocean

Fly friend, fly high

don't be a seagull in the ocean

People shoot to kill

when we fly too low

People shoot to kill

when we fly too low

Friend, use the wind to your benefit

while it's blowing in your favor

may the air carry you far

the farther away, the better

Because here whoever remains on the ground

gets the worst part

the doors will close

they'll deny you a farewell

Nothing is free here

everything has a high price

a step upwards,

is a step for which you must pay.

Here you have to dance to everything

without ever losing your step

they tend to let go of your hand

if they see you going down.

Fly friend, fly high

don't be a seagull in the ocean

Fly friend, fly high

don't be a seagull in the ocean

People shoot to kill

when we fly too low

People shoot to kill

when we fly too low
