    "Thanks to life" / "Gracias a la vida"

    Violeta Parra Sandoval / Cover by @esteliopadilla

    Hello my people HIVE

    The song that I present to you today has been considered, on repeated occasions, one of the most important in music in the Spanish language, it has also been described a deeply human and universal work whose purpose is to celebrate life. It is "Thans to life" and it was composed by the Chilean singer-songwriter Violeta Parra Sandoval (1917 - 1967). Many believe that this song represents an epitaph that Violeta Parra herself wrote for herself, as a kind of farewell. Some say that it is a hymn to human existence and its many nuances. And, others believe that, in reality, it is a sad longing for life, as if the author herself, already in life, had ceased to exist, since she ended her life by committing suicide. This song shows the repeated use of the rhetorical figure of literary construction known as Anaphora, which is nothing more than the repetition of one or more words at the beginning of a series of verses or sentences. In this first part I leave you the Original Version sung by the author herself.

    La canción que hoy les presento, ha sido considerada, en reiteradas oportunidades, una de las más importantes de la música en idioma español, también ha sido calificada una obra profundamente humana y universal que tiene como propósito celebrar la vida. Se trata de "Gracias a la vida" y fue compuesta por la cantautora chilena Violeta Parra Sandoval (1917 - 1967). Muchos creen que esta canción representa un epitafio que la propia Violeta Parra escribiera para sí, como una especie de despedida. Unos dicen que es un canto a la existencia humana y sus múltiples matices. Y, otros creen que, en realidad, es una triste añoranza a la vida, como si la propia autora, ya en vida, hubiera dejado de existir, pues ella terminó suicidándose. En esta canción se evidencia el uso reiterado de la figura retórica de construcción literaria que se conoce como Anáfora, que no es mas que la repetición de una o varias palabras al principio de una serie de versos u oraciones. En esta primera parte les dejo la Versión Original cantada por la propia autora.


    "Thanks to life" / "Gracias a la vida" - Original Version sung by the author Violeta Parra Sandoval

    Thanks to life

    Thanks to the life that has given me so much,
    it gave me two stars that when I open them
    I perfectly distinguish black from white,
    and in the high sky its starry background,
    and in the crowds the woman that I love.

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much,
    has given me the ear that in all its width,
    every night and day, crickets and canaries,
    hammers, turbines, barking, showers
    and the tender voice of my beloved.

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much,
    has given me the sound and the alphabet,
    with him the words that I think and declare,
    mother, friend, brother and light shining
    the path of the soul of which I am loving.

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much,
    has given me the march of my tired feet.
    With them I walked cities and puddles,
    beaches and deserts, mountains and plains,
    and your house, your street and your patio.

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much,
    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.

    Thanks to life, which has given me so much,
    It has made me laugh and it has made me cry.
    So I distinguish happiness from brokenness,
    the two materials that make up my song
    and your song that is the same song,
    and the song of all that is my own song.

    Author: Violeta Parra Sandoval

    Thanks to life / Gracias a la vida Cover by @esteliopadilla

    Gracias a la vida

    Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
    me dio dos luceros que cuando los abro
    perfecto distingo lo negro del blanco,
    y en el alto cielo su fondo estrellado,
    y en las multitudes la mujer que yo amo.

    Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
    me ha dado el oído que en todo su ancho,
    cada noche y día, grillos y canarios,
    martillos, turbinas, ladridos, chubascos
    y la voz tan tierna de la mujer que yo amo.

    Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
    me ha dado el sonido y el abecedario,
    con él las palabras que pienso y declaro,
    madre, amigo, hermano y luz alumbrando
    la ruta del alma de la que estoy amando.

    Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
    me ha dado la marcha de mis pies cansados.
    Con ellos anduve ciudades y charcos,
    playas y desiertos, montañas y llanos,
    y la casa tuya, tu calle y tu patio.

    Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
    me dio el corazón que agita su marco,
    cuando miro el fruto del cerebro humano,
    cuando miro el bueno tan lejos del malo,
    cuando miro el fondo de tus ojos claros.

    Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto,
    me ha dado la risa y me ha dado el llanto.
    Así yo distingo dicha de quebranto,
    los dos materiales que forman mi canto,
    el canto de ustedes que es el mismo canto
    y el canto de todos que es mi propio canto.

    Autora: Violeta Parra Sandoval
