thanks to life

Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me two bright stars that when I open them
I can perfectly distinguish black from white
And in the high sky, its starry background
And in the crowds, the man that I love
 
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me hearing that in all its width
Every night and day crickets and canaries
Hammers, turbines, barks, cloudbursts
And the tender voice of my beloved
 
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me the sound and the alphabet
With it the words I think and declare
"Mother, "friend", "brother" and light illuminating
The path of the soul of the one I am loving
 
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me the march of my weary feet
With them I walked cities and puddles
Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains
And your house, your street and your yard
 
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given 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 light-colored eyes
 
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me laughter and it has given me weeping
That is how I distinguish bliss from affliction
The two materials that make up my song
And your song, which is the same song
 
And everybody's song, which is my own song
 
Thanks to life
