Vivo en un país libre
I live in a free country
Cual solamente puede ser libre
Which can only be truly free
En esta tierra, en este instante
In this land, in this moment
Y soy feliz porque soy gigante
And I'm happy because I'm a giant
Amo a una mujer clara
I love a woman clear as day
Que amo y me ama
Whom I love and loves me back
Sin pedir nada
Asking for nothing
O casi nada
Or almost nothing
Que no es lo mismo
Which isn't the same
Pero es igual
But it's all the same
Y si esto fuera poco
And if this were not enough
Tengo mis cantos
I have my songs
Que poco a poco
That little by little
Muelo y rehago
I grind and reshape
Habitando el tiempo
Dwelling in time
Como le cuadra
As it suits
A un hombre despierto
A awake man
Soy feliz
I am happy
Soy un hombre feliz
I am a happy man
Y quiero que me perdonen
And I want them to forgive me
Por este día
For this day
Los muertos de mi felicidad
The dead of my happiness
