[English]

We, we don't have to worry 'bout nothin' (nothin', nothin')
'Cause we got the fire, and we're burning one hell of a something
(something, something)
They, they gonna see us from outer space, outer space
Light it up, like we're the stars of the human race, human race
When the lights turned down, they don't know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We'll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
'Cause we got the fire, fire, fire, yeah we got the fire, fire, fire
And we're gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We're gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We're gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
Oh, we're gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We don't wanna leave, no, we just wanna be right now
And what we see, is everybody's on the floor
Acting crazy, getting loco to the lights out
Music's on, I'm waking up, we start the fire, and we burn it out
And it's over now, we got the love, there's no secret now, no secret now
When the lights turned down, they don't know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We'll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
'Cause we got the fire, fire, fire, yeah we got the fire, fire, fire
And we gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We're gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
When the lights turned down, they don't know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We're gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
burn, burn,
burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
We can light it up up up so they can put it out out out
We can light it up up up so they can put it out out out
We can light it up up up so they can put it out out out
We can light it up up up so they can put it out out out
When the lights turned down, they don't know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We'll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
'Cause we got the fire, fire, fire, yeah we got the fire, fire, fire
And we gonna let it burn,
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
When the lights turned down, they don't know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We'll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
'Cause we got the fire, fire, fire, yeah we got the fire, fire, fire
And we gonna let it burn,
