[English]

Ya hace un tiempo que me siento bien

I've been feeling good for a while now

Que sé que todo lo que pasa va a ponerme okay

I know that everything that happens will be okay

Será este feeling, las ganas o yo qué sé

Maybe it's this feeling, the desire, or I don't know

Hoy si quiero hartarme de beber y

Today I want to drink until I can't anymore and

Y miro el tiempo y no sé ni por qué

I look at the time and I don't even know why

Hoy se ha parado el tonto pa' decirme "Hey"

Today the fool stopped to tell me "Hey"

"¿Qué cojones te pasa que sales de casa y saludas a todo el que viene?"

"What's wrong with you that you leave the house and greet everyone who comes?"

Nada, no me pasa nada

Nothing, nothing's wrong with me

Solo que no me apetece ver como sigo con mala cara

I just don't feel like seeing how I keep looking sour

Yo sé que la vida es a veces muy jodida, pero yo ya he salido de la cama

I know that life can be really tough sometimes, but I've already gotten out of bed

¿Qué dices?

What do you say?

Ven, parece que la vida está diciendo "ven"

Come, it seems like life is saying "come"

Quiere enseñarme aquello que no puedo ver

It wants to show me what I can't see

Hoy pienso llamar a mi madre y decirle que no se preocupe

Today I think I'll call my mom and tell her not to worry

Que hay que cumplir los sueños y lo lograré

That we have to fulfill our dreams and I will achieve it

El odio que se vaya, yo devolveré

Let the hate go away, I'll return

Las fuerzas que siempre me han dado y, aunque suene raro, nunca valoré

The strength that has always given me and, even if it sounds strange, I never valued

Hace un tiempo que me siento bien

I've been feeling good for a while now

Que sé que todo lo que pasa va a ponerme okay

I know that everything that happens will be okay

Será este feeling, las ganas o yo que sé

Maybe it's this feeling, the desire, or I don't know

Hoy si quiero hartarme de beber y

Today I want to drink until I can't anymore and

Y miro el tiempo y no sé ni por qué

I look at the time and I don't even know why

Hoy se ha parado el tonto pa' decirme "Hey"

Today the fool stopped to tell me "Hey"

"¿Qué cojones te pasa que sales de casa y saludas a todo el que viene?"

"What's wrong with you that you leave the house and greet everyone who comes?"

Sigo corriendo en la vida buscando la felicidad otra vez

I keep running in life looking for happiness again

Pero buscarla impide tenerla, así que tú vive y ve, bebe

But searching for it prevents having it, so just live and see, drink

Vivir la vida volando es mejor que verla volar

Living life flying is better than watching it fly

Si dejas que el sordo baile ya empezarás a entender

If you let the deaf dance, you'll start to understand

Voy mirando cada paso que camino y es

I watch every step I take and it's

Una marca del destino que tengo que aprender

A mark of destiny that I have to learn

Que somos guerreros de luz en sombra

That we are warriors of light in shadow

Que se asombran de la luz cuando solo nos dará bien

Who are amazed by the light when it will only do us good

Si lo que más duele no se dice: Cállate

If what hurts the most isn't said: Shut up

Si lo que se dice no te duele: Grítame

If what is said doesn't hurt you: Shout at me

Si no vas a por todas no vayas, yo voy bien, el vaiven, bye bye, princesa báilame

If you're not going all in, don't go, I'm doing fine, the ups and downs, bye bye, princess dance with me

"¿Qué cojones te pasa que sales de casa y saludas a todo el que viene?"

"What's wrong with you that you leave the house and greet everyone who comes?"

Si tu corazón no llora, ¿cómo apagarás incendios?

If your heart doesn't cry, how will you put out fires?

Pa' ver feliz al ser habrá que ver el mal en medio

To see the being happy, you have to see the bad in between

Crecer no es ver la cima sino ver como e' tu empeño

Growing isn't seeing the peak but seeing how your effort is

Por llegar más arriba crecerá desde pequeño

To reach higher, it will grow from small

¿Y sabes qué? No te lo digo en serio

And you know what? I'm not saying this seriously

Pero hazme caso que acaso he hecho y con criterio

But listen to me because I've done it with reason

La vida pide vida y sabe bien que estás haciendo

Life asks for life and knows well what you're doing

Todo lo que desprendas se acabará devolviendo

Everything you give off will eventually come back

Si lo que más duele no se dice: Cállate

If what hurts the most isn't said: Shut up

Si lo que se dice no te duele: Grítame

If what is said doesn't hurt you: Shout at me

Si no vas a por todas no vayas, yo voy bien, el vaiven, bye bye, princesa báilame

If you're not going all in, don't go, I'm doing fine, the ups and downs, bye bye, princess dance with me

Si lo que más duele no se dice: Cállate

Si lo que se dice no te duele: Grítame

Key Grammar Structures

• Ya hace un tiempo que me siento bien

  ➔ Impersonal 'hacer' + time expression + 'que' + present tense

  ➔ This expresses that the speaker has been feeling good for some time now. 'Hace un tiempo' means 'it's been a while'.

• Que sé que todo lo que pasa va a ponerme okay

  ➔ 'Ir a' + infinitive to express future intention/probability.

  ➔ Uses the construction "ir a + infinitive" ("va a ponerme") to express a future action. Means: "I know that everything that happens is going to make me okay."

• ¿Qué cojones te pasa que sales de casa y saludas a todo el que viene?

  ➔ Use of 'que' as a relative pronoun and the use of informal language ('cojones').

  ➔ Here, 'que' introduces a relative clause describing the person. 'Cojones' is a vulgar word expressing surprise or anger.

• Solo que no me apetece ver como sigo con mala cara

  ➔ 'Apetecer' + infinitive to express wanting to do something.

  ➔ 'No me apetece' means 'I don't feel like' or 'I don't want to'.

• Si dejas que el sordo baile ya empezarás a entender

  ➔ Subjunctive mood after 'si' clauses that express a hypothetical or unlikely situation.

  ➔ Although "empezarás" is in future tense, the "si" clause suggests a condition for understanding, but this condition (a deaf person dancing) is highly improbable.

• Si lo que más duele no se dice: Cállate

  ➔ Use of 'se' for impersonal statements or passive voice.

  ➔ 'No se dice' can be interpreted as 'it is not said' (passive) or 'one does not say' (impersonal).

• Pa' ver feliz al ser habrá que ver el mal en medio

  ➔ 'Para' + infinitive to express purpose or in order to do something. Use of 'haber que' + infinitive to express obligation or necessity.

  ➔ 'Para ver feliz al ser' (in order to see the being happy). 'Habrá que ver' expresses that it will be necessary to see something (the evil in the middle).
