ABBA is one of the best musical groups of all time. Anybody could easily whistle their melodies and mostly the lyrics of their songs have a very positive message.
Another lovely thing is that they decided to record songs in different languages, so they reached new borders away from the traditional Northern hemisphere countries.
As happened with the beautiful song Águas de Março of Tom Jobim recorded in Portuguese and in English as Waters of March that I translated, here I have the translation of the English version of Move On and in Spanish: Al Andar.
In black is the original lyrics in English and after the three bars /// there is the Spanish translated lyrics.
They say a restless body can hide a peaceful soul /// They say the eager hides a soul in peace,
A voyager and a settler, they both have a distant goal /// Traveler or missionary they go much further
If I explore the heavens, or if I search inside /// If I look up to the skies or inside me, I don't know
Well, it really doesn't matter as long as I can tell myself /// Nothing matters much anymore if I can in honesty
I've always tried /// Knowing that, I tried
Like a roller in the ocean, life is motion /// Like the sea and its tide rising
Move on /// People go when moving on
Like a wind that's always blowing, life is flowing /// Like the wind and its current
Move on /// Life goes when moving on
Like the sunrise in the morning, life is dawning /// Like the morning sun
Move on /// That recovers when moving on
How I treasure every minute /// I treasure the moment
Being part of it, being in it /// I live and feel, Is my attempt
With the urge to move on /// And I do it when moving on
I've travelled every country, I've travelled in my mind /// I traveled everywhere with my imagination
It seems we're on a journey, a trip through space and time /// We are always going without time or reason
And somewhere lies the answer /// Who knows the answers who can choose
To all the questions why /// If there are any differences
What really makes the difference /// We know there are in anyone
Between all dead and living things, the will to stay alive /// Wish to live on
Like a roller in the ocean, life is motion /// Like the sea and its tide rising
Move on /// People go when moving on
Like a wind that's always blowing, life is flowing /// Like the wind and its current
Move on /// Life goes when moving on
Like the sunrise in the morning, life is dawning /// Like the morning sun
Move on /// That recovers when moving on
How I treasure every minute /// I treasure the moment
Being part of it, being in it /// I live and feel, Is my attempt
With the urge to move on /// And I do it when moving on
The morning breeze that ripples the surface of the sea /// The breeze that softly caress the sea
The crying of the seagulls that hover over me /// And the seagulls that fly on and on
I see it and I hear it /// I see it and I feel it and I can't explain
But how can I explain /// The splendid moment of feel raining
The wonder of the moment /// And the sunrise living
To be alive, to feel the sun that follows every rain /// and enjoying
Like a roller in the ocean, life is motion /// Like the sea and its tide rising
Move on /// People go when moving on
Like a wind that's always blowing, life is flowing /// Like the wind and its current
Move on /// Life goes when moving on
Like the sunrise in the morning, life is dawning /// Like the morning sun
Move on /// That recovers when moving on
How I treasure every minute /// I treasure the moment
Being part of it, being in it /// I live and feel, Is my attempt
With the urge to move on /// And I do it when moving on
