Thanks to life
Which has given me so much,
It gave me two eyes
So when I open them
I see clearly
Black and white,
I clearly see the high sky
Shining in the deep,
And in the multitude
The man which I love.
Thanks to life
Which has given me so much,
It has given me hearing
So certain and clear
I hear nights and days
Crickets and canaries
whirlwinds hammers
And long cries of dogs
And the tender voice
Of my beloved
Thanks to life
Which has given me so much,
It gave me the step
Of my tired feet
With them I have traversed
Cities and mud puddles,
Long empty beaches,
Valleys and then high mountains
And your way to your house
Your backyard
Thanks to life
Which has given me so much,
Bright the beat*
Of my heart in my chest
When I look at the result
Of the human mind
When I see the distance
Between good and evil
When I look at the depth
Of your clear eyes
Thanks to life
Which has given me so much
It gave me a smile
It gave me crying
So I distinguish
The good or bad destiny
So the feelings that make
My song
Thanks to life
Which has given me so much
