La Vida éS Bonica

We are Easter Monday and like every year
I bring the Easter cake for the eldest son.

It's not the same as other times,
someone won't be at the table today,
but everyone thinks about it from time to time.

Three scoundrels are hard to climb,
no one forgives, especially not the bank.

After work at home,
you clean that staircase
in the building where your lawyer works.

And today is Saturday again,
they will open the door ('hello, how are you?'),
you will act strong ('you've lost weight'),
the youngest asks why dad is not here yet.

When you go out and come back home,
the taste of their lips ('see you soon'),
makes you not hide ('I love you so much').

Life is beautiful but sometimes complicated,
it doesn't matter.

Your man is a good guy
but as always, he got caught up.
When he heard the sentence,
his world collapsed,
how long those four years will be!

The days pass slowly, it's already Christmas;
the little ones wait for the gift.

People look at you in the streets
and greet you with smiles.
Where do you find the strength not to cry?

And today is Saturday again,
they will open the door ('hello, how are you?'),
you will act strong ('you've lost weight'),
the youngest asks why dad is not here yet.

When you go out and come back home,
the taste of their lips ('see you soon'),
makes you not hide ('I love you so much').

Life is beautiful but sometimes complicated,
it doesn't matter.
