Una Vida Por Delante
Nach
A Life Ahead
[Nach]
(This is dedicated to you, the first day of your life, my dear baby)
After a heart-stopping pact
Mercy, the miracle of life
Took place, opened its eyes and started to cry
Fragile creature wants to find its way
Wants to fly, wants to play, wants to discover the world
What will become of your life on this planet?
In this exploding millennium
You won't see machine guns even in your broken boots
There won't be hells, nor winters
There won't be malice in your surroundings
You'll navigate through modern times
A life ahead, a diamond ready to shine
The sea is yours if you seek it, the land is yours if you want to dig
The fire is yours if you want to burn
The air is yours, the art is yours, and the flowers, do you want to stay?
Share your world, it will be your home or your prison
Your mind will be your life, your death, everything depends
Stretch all the threads you can, meet people
You'll have friends and enemies, but live intensely
Your mission will be to have fun and also to laugh
What's the use of suffering if later you'll have to leave?
And regret, for all that you didn't do
Look, a whole life awaits you, a whole life
[Flavio Rodríguez]
The stars and the sun will guide you (they will guide you)
Your path, lights and shadows, will find you
A life ahead
It's a game, don't take it seriously
Because the road is long
And you have to live each step as if it were the last

Welcome to biological life
To this technological era and sometimes not so logical
Era of changes and extremes
Of chronometers, lights, and frenzy
In which there are still many good men
The world is yours, shape it in poems
Life is beautiful, let it flow among your sorrows
Don't be afraid, neither of your problems nor your feelings
You'll be hunter and prey, apprentice and master
You'll kiss luxury and adore its reflections
Mazes of mirrors, sometimes too complex
You'll feel the end so far, but you'll grow old
And you'll make a mistake if you ask time for advice
So free your mind and you'll be happy
Live for others without forgetting yourself
I know it sounds difficult, but you'll understand
You'll run through meadows, make the gazes yours
You'll discover wonders, go from shore to shore
Five continents, seven seas, dreams, nightmares
Colossal monuments, soon you'll admire cities
Dangers and centuries of history you'll know
[Flavio Rodríguez]
The stars and the sun will guide you (they will guide you)
Your path, lights and shadows, will find you (you'll find)
A life ahead
It's a game, don't take it seriously
Because the road is long
And you have to live each step as if it were the last
The stars and the sun will guide you (they will guide you)
With your head held high, you'll respond (you'll respond)
Avoid clumsiness, let yourself be carried away (don't take it seriously)
Because the road is long
And you have to live each step as if it were the last
Step by step, day by day, lesson after lesson, a life ahead in constant evolution. Face to face, dream to dream, passion without prison, a life ahead of inspiration
Step by step, day by day, lesson after lesson, a life ahead in constant evolution. Face to face, dream to dream, passion without prison, a life ahead and the world your inspiration

Follow your path, everything will be fine, think about what you do, everything will turn out well)
