Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Hoy Puede Ser Un Gran Día by Joan Manuel Serrat from Spanish to English.
Hoy puede ser un gran día
Today could be a great day
Plantéatelo así
Plan it like that
Aprovecharlo o que pase de largo
Make the most of it or let it be that it passes you by
Depende en parte de ti
It partly depends on you
Dale el día libre a la experiencia para comenzar
Give experience the day off to begin
Y recíbelo como si fuera fiesta de guardar
And receive it as if it were a holiday
No consientas que se esfume
Don't allow that it fade away
Asómate y consume la vida a granel
Lean out and consume life wholesale
Hoy puede ser un gran día
Today could be a great day
Hoy puede ser un gran día
Today could be a great day
Donde todo está por descubrir
Where everything is yet to be discovered
Si lo empleas como el último que te toca vivir
If you use it like it's the last one that you get to live
Saca de paseo a tus instintos y ventílalos al sol
Take your instincts out for a walk and air them in the sun
Y no dosifiques los placeres
And don't ration the pleasures
Si puedes, derróchalos
If you can, squander them
Si la rutina te aplasta dile que ya basta de mediocridad
If routine crushes you tell it that enough of mediocrity
Hoy puede ser un gran día
Today could be a great day
Date una oportunidad
Give yourself a chance
Hoy puede ser un gran día imposible de recuperar
Today could be a great day impossible to get back
Un ejemplar único no lo dejes escapar
A one-of-a-kind specimen, don't let it slip away
Que todo cuanto te rodea, lo han puesto para ti
That everything around you has been placed there for you
No lo mires desde la ventana y siéntate al festín
Don't look at it from the window and sit down at the feast
Pelea por lo que quieres y no desesperes si algo no anda bien
Fight for that which you want and don't despair if something isn't going right
Hoy puede ser un gran día y mañana también
Today could be a great day and tomorrow too
