Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Hoy La Ví by Pablo Milanés from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Y tenía un rostro ajeno al que yo amaba
And she had a face other than the one I loved
El que dan unos años de no ser feliz
The one that gives a few years of not being happy
Y recordé la historia de un pedazo de mi vida
And I remembered the story of a piece of my life
En que abrí la primavera bruta de mis años al amor
In which I opened the gross spring of my years to love
Y tenía un rostro ajeno al que yo amaba
And she had a face other than the one I loved
El que dan unos años de no ser feliz
The one that gives a few years of not being happy
Mi futuro de sueños llené
I filled my future with dreams
Logré identificar tu belleza
I managed to identify your beauty
Y el mundo al revés
and the world upside down
Nos miraban de muy buena fe
They looked at us in good faith
Nada cruel existía, si yo te veía, reía después
Nothing cruel existed, if I saw you, I would laugh later
Desperté la mañana en que no pudo ser
I woke up the morning that it couldn't be
No sin antes jurar que si no era contigo, jamás
Not without first swearing that if it wasn't with you, never
Que esta herida me habría de matar
That this wound would kill me
Y heme aquí qué destino que ni el nombre tuyo
And here I am what destiny that not even your name
Pude recordar
I could remember
Y tenía un rostro ajeno al que yo amaba
And she had a face other than the one I loved
El que dan unos años de no ser feliz
The one that gives a few years of not being happy
