Aimer La Vie (Soy Un Truhán, Soy Un Señor)

The sky is not lacking in charm,
but I prefer
the pleasures, the joys, the tears
of our earth,
the good wine, the bright eyes
of pretty women...
Life is more sparkling
than champagne!
Up there you must bite the apple,
Mr. Devil,
but the old floor of men
is fantastic.
And I give eternity
and its silence
for a poor summer day
of my vacations.
It's allowed
to love life and love love,
to love the night, to love the day
and to think that it's too short...
Way too short!
I feel like
catching up with the passing time,
to live to the fullest, to live for
loving life, loving love.
Life is the eternal miracle,
the only chance;
each day, the grand show
that starts over.
I applaud, I say: "Hats off!"
to the great artist
who draws the picture
where you exist.
...The good wine, the bright eyes
of pretty women...
Life is more sparkling
than champagne!
