Hoy Puede Ser Un Gran Día Lyrics in English Joan Manuel Serrat

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Hoy Puede Ser Un Gran Día by Joan Manuel Serrat from Spanish to English.
Today could be a great day
Plan it like that
Make the most of it or let it be that it passes you by
It partly depends on you
Give experience the day off to begin
And receive it as if it were a holiday
Don't allow that it fade away
Lean out and consume life wholesale
Today could be a great day
Go hard at it
Today could be a great day
Where everything is yet to be discovered
If you use it like it's the last one that you get to live
Take your instincts out for a walk and air them in the sun
And don't ration the pleasures
If you can, squander them
If routine crushes you tell it that enough of mediocrity
Today could be a great day
Give yourself a chance
Today could be a great day impossible to get back
A one-of-a-kind specimen, don't let it slip away
That everything around you has been placed there for you
Don't look at it from the window and sit down at the feast
Fight for that which you want and don't despair if something isn't going right
Today could be a great day and tomorrow too

SONG MEANING

Hoy Puede Ser Un Gran Día is Serrat’s spirited wake-up call telling you to charge into the morning like it is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Every verse hands you a friendly nudge: swing open the door, let sunshine air out your instincts, and feast on everything life serves. The song insists that greatness is not reserved for special dates on the calendar – it is hiding inside any ordinary sunrise, waiting for you to claim it.

Serrat also reminds us that time is a limited-edition item, so refuse to let routine flatten your curiosity. If something goes wrong, keep fighting for what matters because tomorrow can be a “gran día” too. In short, the lyrics celebrate bold optimism, urging you to spend today as if it were both the first and last page of your own epic story.
