Thanks to Life

Gracias a La Vida

Thanks to life that has given me so much,Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
It gave me two bright stars that when I open them,Me dio dos luceros que cuando los abro,
Perfectly distinguish black from white,Perfecto distingo lo negro del blanco,
And in the high sky its starry backgroundY en el alto cielo su fondo estrellado
And in the crowds the man I love.Y el las multitudes al hombre que yo amo.

Thanks to life that has given me so much,Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
It gave me the sound and the alphabet,Me ha dado el sonido y el abecedario,
With it the words I think and declare,Con él las palabras que pienso y declaro,
Mother, friend, brother, and light illuminatingMadre, amigo, hermano y luz alumbrando
The soul's path of the one I love.La ruta del alma del que estoy amando.

Thanks to life that has given me so much,Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
It gave me the hearing that in all its width,Me ha dado el oído que en todo su ancho,
Records night and day crickets and canaries,Graba noche y día grillos y canarios,
Hammers, turbines, barks, downpours,Martillos, turbinas, ladridos, chubascos,
And the tender voice of my beloved.Y la voz tan tierna de mi bien amado.

Thanks to life that has given me so much,Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
It gave me the stride of my tired feet,Me ha dado la marcha de mis pies cansados,
With them I walked through cities and puddles,Con ellos anduve ciudades y charcos,
Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains,Playas y desiertos, montañas y llanos,
And your house, your street, and your patio.Y la casa tuya, tu calle y tu patio.

Thanks to life that has given me so much,Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
It gave me the heart that beats its mantle,Me dio el corazón que agita su manto,
When I look at the fruit of the human brain,Cuando miro el fruto, del cerebro humano,
When I look at the good, so far from the bad,Cuando miro al bueno, tan lejos del malo,
When I look into the depths of your clear eyes.Cuando miro el fondo de tus ojos claros.

Thanks to life that has given me so much,Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
It gave me laughter, and it gave me tears,Me ha dado la risa, y me ha dado el llanto,
Thus I distinguish happiness from sorrow,Así yo distingo dicha de quebranto,
The two materials that make up my song,Los dos materiales que forman mi canto,
And the song of everyone which is the same song,Y el canto de todos que es el mismo canto,
And your song, which is my own song.Y el canto de ustedes, que es mi propio canto.
