Thanks to life that has given me so much
_____
It gave me two stars that when I open them
_____
I perfectly distinguish the black from the white
_____
And in the high sky, its starry background
_____
And in the crowds, the man that I love
_____
Thanks to life that has given me so much
_____
It has given me hearing that in all its width
_____
Every night and day, crickets and canaries
_____
Hammers, turbines, barks, downpours
_____
And the tender voice of my beloved
_____
Thanks to life that has given me so much
_____
It has given me sound and the alphabet
_____
With it, the words that I think and declare
_____
Mother, friend, brother and light illuminating
_____
The path of the soul of the one that I'm loving
_____
Thanks to life that has given me so much
_____
It has given me the march of my tired feet
_____
With them I walked cities and puddles
_____
Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains
_____
And your house, your street and your patio
_____
Thanks to life that has given me so much
_____
It gave me the heart that shakes its frame
_____
When I look at the fruit of the human brain
_____
When I look at the good so far from the bad
_____
When I look at the depth of your clear eyes
_____
Thanks to life that has given me so much
_____
It has given me laughter and it has given me tears
_____
Thus I distinguish happiness from sorrow
_____
The two materials that form my song
_____
And the song of you all that is the same song
_____
And the song of everyone that is my own song
