O mundo é um tapete verde
Quando a bola chega lá
Coração fica na rede, na rede, na rede
Ola, ola
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
I dare you
Leggo
Leggo
Leggo
Leggo
Feel how the planet, become one
Beats like a drum to the same rhythm
Hear the whistle, kick the ball
The entire world soars like an eagle
In Rio we play, like we dance
Only today there's no tomorrow
Leave all behind, in this place
There's no space for fear or sorrow
Is it true that you want it?
Then act like you mean it
With everyone watching
It's truth or dare, can you feel it?
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la

I dare you
Leggo
Leggo
You have arrived, it's the place
No more doubts the time is coming
Feel how the planet, become one
Like a drum destiny's calling
German, Colombians, Spanish and French
Off the bench you gotta own it
Down here we play, like we dance
It's Brazil and now you know it
Is it true that you want it?
Then act like you mean it
With everyone watching
It's truth or dare, can you feel it?
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la (oh, oh, oh, oh)
La, la, la, la, la, la
I dare you
Is it true that you want it?
Then act like you mean it
The whole world is watching
It's truth or dare, can you feel it?
Feel it, feel it, feel, feel, feel, feel, feel
La, la, la, la, la

“La La” by Shakira feat. Carlinhos Brown is a lively song that celebrates the universal love of soccer and how it brings people together. The opening lines state that “the ball will roll” and that “the world is a green carpet.” This metaphor refers to how the game of soccer brings people from all parts of the world together, creating a sense of unity and camaraderie. The song highlights the joy and excitement felt when the ball reaches the back of the net, told with a smooth, rhythmic chorus of “La La La,” that creates an uplifting feeling.
The lyrics go on to say that playing soccer is like dancing in Rio, implying the freeing and contagious nature of the game. The references to Spanish, French, and Colombian cultures create a sense of unity among different countries, which is what soccer does around the world. The phrase ‘Leggo’ is repeated throughout the song, which likely represents the word “let’s go,” adding an anticipatory feeling and emphasizing the need to join together.
The song encourages people to act like they mean it and show everyone that they are in the game. It also represents the message of truth or dare, referring to the idea that people should dare to be brave and show their capabilities. Shakira and Carlinhos Brown refer to the fact that the world is watching and encourages you to embrace it, regardless of any doubts, fears, or worries.
