The Greatest

Niño pequeño, con una gorra de béisbol, está parado en el campo con su pelota y su bate.Little boy, in a baseball hat stands in the field with his ball and bat.
Dice: 'Soy el mejor jugador de todos' pone su bate en su hombro y lanza su pelota al aire.Says, "I am the greatest player of them all" puts his bat on his shoulder and he tosses up his ball.
Y la pelota sube y la pelota baja, balancea su bate alrededorAnd the ball goes up and the ball comes down swings his bat all the way around
El mundo tan quieto que puedes escuchar el sonido, la pelota cae al suelo.The world so still you can hear the sound, the baseball falls to the ground.
Ahora el niño no dice una palabra, recoge su pelota, no se desanima.Now the little boy doesn't say a word, picks up his ball, he is undeterred.
Dice: 'Soy el mejor que ha existido' y aprieta los dientes y lo intenta de nuevo.Says, "I am the greatest there has ever been" and he grits his teeth and he tries it again.
Y la pelota sube y la pelota baja, balancea su bate alrededorAnd the ball goes up and the ball comes down swings his bat all the way around
El mundo tan quieto que puedes escuchar el sonido, la pelota cae al suelo.The world so still you can hear the sound, the baseball falls to the ground.
No busca excusas, no muestra miedo, solo cierra los ojos y escucha los aplausos.He makes no excuses, he shows no fear, he just closes his eyes and listens to the cheers.
El niño ajusta su gorra, recoge su pelota, mira su bateLittle boy, he adjusts his hat, picks up his ball, stares at his bat
Dice: 'Soy el mejor, el juego está en juego' y da todo una última vez.Says,"I am the greatest, the game is on the line" and he gives his all one last time.
Y la pelota sube y la luna tan brillante, balancea su bate con toda su fuerzaAnd the ball goes up and the moon so bright, swings his bat with all his might
El mundo está tan quieto, tan quieto como puede ser, la pelota cae y eso es strike tres.The world's as still, as still can be, the baseball falls and that's strike three.
