I like the smell that the morning has

I like the first sip of coffee

To feel when the sun peeks through my window

And it fills my gaze with a beautiful sunrise

I like to hear the peace of the mountains

To watch the colors of the sunset

To feel the beach sand on my feet

And the cane's sweetness when I kiss my woman

I know, I know that time is in a hurry

To wipe me from the list

But I tell it that

Oh, how beautiful this life is

And though sometimes it hurts so much

And in spite of the sorrows

There's always someone that loves us

There's always someone that watches over us

Ay, ay, ay, ay

How beautiful this life is

And even though it's not forever

If I live it with my people

It's beautiful until death

With songs and tequila

I like to hear the voice of a guitar

To toast to that friend that left

To feel the embrace of dawn

And to fill my gaze with another beautiful sunrise

I like to hear the peace of the mountains

To watch the colors of the sunset

To feel the beach sand on my feet

And the cane's sweetness when I kiss my woman

I know, I know that time is in a hurry

To wipe me from the list

But I tell it that

Oh, how beautiful this life is

And though sometimes it hurts so much

And in spite of the sorrows

There's always someone that loves us

There's always someone that watches over us

Ay, ay, ay, ay

How beautiful this life is

And even though it's not forever

If I live it with my people

It's beautiful until death

With songs and tequila

Ay, ay, ay, ay

How beautiful this life is
