Los Caminos De La Vida Lyrics in English La Tropa Vallenata

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Los Caminos De La Vida by La Tropa Vallenata from Spanish to English.
Y esto es para todas las madres del mundo
And this is for all the mothers in the world
Con mucho amor
With much love
Hombre
Man
Los caminos de la vida
The roads of life
No son como yo pensaba
Aren't like I thought
Como los imaginaba
Like I imagined them
No son como yo creía
Aren't like I believed
Los caminos de la vida
The roads of life
Son muy difícil de andarlos
They're really hard to travel
Difícil de caminarlos
Hard to walk them
Yo no encuentro la salida
I can't find the way out
Yo pensaba que la vida era distinta
I thought that life was different
Cuando estaba pequeñito yo creía
When I was little I believed
Que las cosas eran fácil como ayer
That things were easy like yesterday
Que mi viejecita buena se esmeraba
That my sweet old mom worked hard
Por darme todo lo que necesitaba
To give me everything that I needed
Y hoy me doy cuenta que tanto así no es
And today I realize that it's not really like that
Porque mi viejita ya está cansada
Because my old mom is already tired
De trabajar pa' mi hermano y pa' mí
From working for my brother and for me
Y ahora con gusto me toca ayudarla
And now gladly it's my turn to help her
Y por mi vieja luchare hasta el fin
And for my old lady I'll fight until the end
Por ella lucharé hasta que me muera
For her I'll fight until I die
Y por ella no me quiero morir
And for her I don't want to die
Tampoco que se me muera mi vieja
Nor that my old lady dies
Pero qué va si el destino es así
But so it goes if fate is like that
Los caminos de la vida
The roads of life
No son como yo pensaba
Aren't like I thought
Como imaginaba
As I imagined
No son como yo creía
Aren't like I believed
Los caminos de la vida
The roads of life
Son muy difícil de andarlos
They're really hard to travel
Difícil de caminarlos
Hard to walk them
Y no encuentro la salida
And I can't find the way out
Uno sabe que la vida
You know that life
De repente ha de acabarse
Can suddenly end
Y uno espera que sea tarde
And you hope that it's later
Que llegue la despedida
That the farewell comes
Un amigo me decía
A friend told me
Recompensaré a mis viejos
I'll repay my parents
Por la crianza que me dieron
For the upbringing that they gave me
Y no le alcanzó la vida
And life wasn't long enough for him
Por eso te pido a ti, mi Dios del cielo
That's why I ask you, my God in heaven
Para que me guíes al camino correcto
So that you guide me to the right path
Para mi viejita linda compensar
To make it up to my lovely old lady
Para que olvide ese mar de sufrimientos
So that she forgets that sea of sufferings
Y que de ella se aparte todo el tormento
And that all torment departs from her
Que para criarnos tuvo que pasar
That she had to go through to raise us
Viejita linda tienes que entenderme
Lovely old lady, you have to understand me
No te preocupes todo va a cambiar
Don't worry, everything's going to change
Yo sufro mucho, madrecita, al verte
I suffer a lot, dear mother, when I see you
Necesitada y no te puedo dar
In need and I can't give to you
A veces lloro al sentirme impotente
Sometimes I cry when I feel helpless
Son tantas cosas que te quiero dar
There are so many things that I want to give you
Y voy a luchar incansablemente
And I'm going to fight tirelessly
Porque tú no mereces sufrir más
Because you don't deserve to suffer anymore
Los caminos de la vida
The roads of life
No son como yo pensaba
Aren't like I thought
Como imaginaba
As I imagined
No son como yo creía
Aren't like I believed
Los caminos de la vida
The roads of life
Son muy difícil de andarlos
They're really hard to travel
Difícil de caminarlos
Hard to walk them
Y no encuentro la salida
And I can't find the way out
Los caminos de la vida
The roads of life
No son como yo pensaba
Aren't like I thought
Como imaginaba
As I imagined
No son como yo creía
Aren't like I believed
Los caminos de la vida
The roads of life
Son muy difícil de andarlos
They're really hard to travel
Difícil de caminarlos
Hard to walk them
Y no encuentro la salida
And I can't find the way out
