Honrar La Vida

Honoring Life

Honrar La Vida

No! To remain and pass by¡No! Permanecer y transcurrir
Is not to endure, is not to existNo es perdurar, no es existir
Nor to honor life!¡Ni honrar la vida!
There are so many ways of not being,Hay tantas maneras de no ser,
So much consciousness without knowingTanta conciencia sin saber
NumbAdormecida

To deserve life is not to be silent and consent,Merecer la vida no es callar y consentir,
So many repeated injustices...Tantas injusticias repetidas...
It's a virtue, it's dignity!¡Es una virtud, es dignidad!
And it's the most defined identity attitude!Y es la actitud de identidad ¡más definida!

To last and pass byEso de durar y transcurrir
Doesn't give us the right to boast.No nos da derecho a presumir.
Because it's not the same as livingPorque no es lo mismo que vivir
Honoring life!¡Honrar la vida!

No! To remain and pass by¡No! Permanecer y transcurrir
Doesn't always suggestNo siempre quiere sugerir
Honoring life!¡Honrar la vida!
There's so much petty vanity,Hay tanta pequeña vanidad,
In our foolish humanityEn nuestra tonta humanidad
BlindedEnceguecida

To deserve life is to stand up vertically,Merecer la vida es erguirse vertical,
Beyond evil, beyond falls...Más allá del mal, de las caídas...
It's the same as giving truth,Es igual que darle a la verdad,
And our own freedomY a nuestra propia libertad
The welcome!¡La bienvenida!

To last and pass byEso de durar y transcurrir
Doesn't give us the right to boast.No nos da derecho a presumir.
Because it's not the same as livingPorque no es lo mismo que vivir
Honoring life!¡Honrar la vida!
