What do Argentinians sing at the World Cup 2022?

'Muchachos, ahora nos volvimos a ilusionar' (Guys! We are all excited again!)

Football unites Argentinians, no matter their political views, social background, religion, or location.

During each match, and specially during the World Cup, we, Argentinians were supporting our squad by singing with passion, either at the stadium, in a pub, club or from our own homes in front of the telly.

This year, at Qatar 2022, one special song became a big hit.

'Muchachos, ahora nos volvimos a ilusionar' song by La Mosca is now popular around the world.

Since no translation into English is available online yet, here it's my transcreated version of the lyrics of this cheering anthem for Argentina 2022:



Guys! We are all excited again!


I was born in Argentina,

land of Diego and Lionel

of the young boys of Malvinas

whom I will never forget.


I can't explain this to you

because you won't understand

the finals that we lost

how many years I cried about those.


But that's over,

because at the Maracana

the final with the Brazilians

was won again by us, (their Dad).


Guys, we are all excited again!

I want to win the third one,

I want to be World Champion.


And we can see Diego

in heaven with his dad and mum

cheering on Lionel. 


Let's be champions one more time!

Let's be champions one more time!

If there are any parts of the song you don't understand or you have any questions, please let me know in the comments below. 

All suggestions for improvement are welcome. 

Thanks for reading this translation made with love from an Argentine in London, UK.

How to work with an interpreter in a Trade Fair or Exhibition?

In relation to my previous post about interpreting at business meetings, I wrote an article about the challenges and opportunities you may find by working with an interpreter in trade fairs or exhibitions. London is a hub of International Trade Fairs and Exhibitions and every day there are numerous events taking place in Olympia, Excel and other conference venues around the English capital. From the International Jewellery Show to World Travel Market, or from Architects@Work to the London Wine Fair, there is always an industry, product or service that can be featured, promoted and sold through one of these popular fairs. Both exhibitors and visitors come from different countries or regions of the UK to showcase their products, establish business partnerships, network with other entrepreneurs, raise awareness about their brand and reach new markets. Many exhibitors and visitors also rely on an interpreter if they do not feel confident when communicating with possible buyers who do no...
