Mi nombre es Eyliana Ramírez, soy de Mérida/ Venezuela. Llevo un tiempo en hive y me ha fascinado la calidad y cantidad de contenidos que se generan a diario.

Letra

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, el hombre que yo amo.

Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto
Me ha dado el oído que en todo su ancho
Graba noche y día grillos y canarios
Martillos, turbinas, ladridos, chubascos
Y la voz tan tierna de mi bien amado

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 del 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
Y el canto de ustedes que es el mismo canto
Y el canto de todos que es mi propio canto

Gracias a la vida, gracias a la vida

Lyrics

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

Thanks to life that has given me so much
It has given me the ear which in all its breadth
Records night and day crickets and canaries
Hammers, turbines, barks, squalls
And the voice so tender of my well beloved

Thanks to life that has given me so much
It has given me the sound and the alphabet
With it, the words that I think and declare
Mother, friend, brother, and light illuminating
The path of the soul of the one I love

Thanks 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 puddles
Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains
And your house, your street and your courtyard

Thanks to the life that 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 into the depths of your clear eyes

Thanks to the life that has given me so much
It has given me laughter and it has given me crying
So I distinguish joy from sorrow
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

Thanks to life, thanks to life
