Thank you Life...

Thank you, Life, for you gave me so much.

You gave me two stars for eyes and when I open them

I can perfectly distinguish black from white

And up above in the skies the constellations

And in the crowds the man I love.

Thank you, Life, for you gave me so much.

You gave me ears so that I can hear

And record the sounds day and night of

Crickets, canaries, factories, dogs barking,

The rain falling, and the sweet voice of my loved one.

Thank you, Life, for you gave me so much.

You gave me the sounds and the alphabet

And with them the words I think of and declare

Mother, friend, brother and light shining

Over the route of my loved one's soul.

Thank you, Life, for you gave me so much.

You gave my tired feet the strenght to walk

On them I have visited cities and potholes

Beaches and deserts, mountains and valleys

And your house, your street, your backyard.

Thank you, Life, for you gave me so much.

You gave me my heart that beats like a drum

When I see the fruits of the human brain

When I see good so far away from evil

When I look in the depth of your beautiful eyes.

Thank you, Life, for you gave me so much.

You gave me laughter and tears

So I can express happiness and sorrow

The two elements my songs are made of

And your songs, which are like my songs,

And everybody's songs, which are also mine.

Thank you God for my Life..
