Thanks to life, Beautiful song to reflect on
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
He gave me two stars, when I open them
Perfect I distinguish black from white
And in the high sky its starry background
And in the crowds the man that I love
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me the ear that in all its width
Record night and day, crickets and canaries
Hammers, turbines, barks, showers
And the voice so tender of my well loved
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
He has given me the sound and the alphabet
With him the words I think and declare
Mother, friend, brother, and light shining
The soul path that I am loving
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me the march of my tired feet
With them I walked cities and puddles
Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains
And your house, your street and your yard
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
He gave me the heart that waves his frame
When I look at the fruit of the human brain
When I look at the good so far from the bad
When I look at the back of your light eyes
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
It has given me laughter and it has given me tears
Thus I distinguish joy from brokenness
The two materials that make up my song
And your song that is my song
And everyone's song that is my own song
Thanks to life, which has given me so much
