[Verse 1: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] I had this perfect dream Un sueño me envolvió This dream was me and you Tal vez estás aquí I want all the world to see Un instinto me guiaba A miracle sensation My guide and inspiration Now my dream is slowly coming true
[Verse 2: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] The wind is a gentle breeze Ooh, él me habló de ti, aah The bells are ringing out El canto vuela They're calling us together Guiding us forever Wish my dream would never go away
[Chorus: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] (Barcelona) It was the first time that we met (Barcelona) How can I forget (Ho-oooh-oooh) The moment that you stepped into the room You took my breath away (Ho-oooh-oooh) (Barcelona) La musica vibró (Barcelona, ooh) Y ella nos unió And if God willing We will meet again someday
[Verse 3: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] Let the songs begin Déjalo nacer Let the music play, aaah-aaah-aaah! Make the voices sing Nace un gran amor Start the celebration Ven a mi, and cry, Grita Come alive, vive And shake the foundations from the skies (Aaaah-aaaah-aaaah!) Ah, ah, shaking all our lives (Aaaah!) Aaaaah!
[Chorus: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] (Barcelona) Such a beautiful horizon (Barcelona) Like a jewel in the sun Por ti seré gaviota de tu bella mar, aaaah-aaah-aaah-aaah (Barcelona) Suenan las campanas (Barcelona, ooh) Abre tus puertas al mundo (Aaaah) If God is willing, if God is willing If God is willing (Aaaaaaaah) Friends until the end Viva, (Aaaaaaaah) Ooh-ooh-ooh, aaah-aaah-aaah-aaaaaaah! Barcelona
