Thank you to the life that has given me so much Thank you to the life that has given me so much Thank you to the life that has given me so much It has given me a life that in all its breadth Records night and day Crickets and canaries, hammers, turbines, drillers Chubascos, gilados, tancieros, reniniers, plumados Thank you to the life that has given me so much It has given me a nest full of birds With it the words that I think and declare Mother, friend, brother and light illuminating The heart of the soul of which I am loving Thank you to the life that has given me so much It has given me the march of my tired feet With them I walked cities and ponds, beaches and deserts, mountains and plains And your house, your street, your garden Thank you to the life that has given me so much It gave me the heart that shakes its frame When I look at the fruit of the human brain When I look at the good so far from the bad When I look at the bottom of your clear eyes Thank you to the life that has given me so much It has given me laughter and it has given me tears This is how I distinguish and discern soon The two materials that form my song And the song of you that is the same song And the song of all that is my own song Thank you to the life
