Lyrics and translation Sidonie - Gracias a la Vida (with Miri Ros)

Gracias a la Vida (with Miri Ros)

Thanks to Life (with Miri Ros)

Muy, muy, muy bello, estoy felicísimo

Very, very, very beautiful, I'm so happy

Y con unas ganas de escuchar el disco también

And with such a desire to listen to the album too

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life, that has given me so much

Me dio dos luceros que, cuando los abro

It gave me two eyes that, when I open them

Perfecto distingo, lo negro del blanco

I can tell the difference between black and white

Y en el alto cielo su fondo estrellado

And in the high sky, its starry background

Y en las multitudes, el hombre que yo amo

And in the crowds, the man I love

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life, that has given me so much

Me dio el oído que en todo su ancho

It gave me the hearing that in all its breadth

Graba noche y día, grillos y canarios

Records night and day, crickets and canaries

Martillos, turbinas, ladridos, chubascos

Hammers, turbines, barking, downpours

Y la voz tan tierna de mi bien amado

And the tender voice of my beloved

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life that has given me so much

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life that has given me so much

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life that has given me so much

Me ha dado la marcha de mis pies cansados

It gave me the movement of my tired feet

Con ellos anduve, ciudades y charcos

With them I walked, cities and puddles

Playas y desiertos, montañas y llanos

Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains

Y la casa tuya, tu calle y tu patio

And your house, your street and your patio

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life, that has given me so much

Me ha dado la risa y me ha dado el llanto

It gave me laughter and it gave me tears

Así yo distingo dicha de quebranto

So I can tell the difference between happiness and sorrow

Los dos materiales, que forman mi canto

The two materials, that form my song

Y el canto de ustedes que es el mismo canto

And your song which is the same song

Y el canto de todos que es mi propio canto

And the song of all which is my own song

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life that has given me so much

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life that has given me so much

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto

Thanks to life that has given me so much
