Translation of the song lyrics La Vida Es Sueño - Gothica

La Vida Es Sueño (original)

Qué es la vida?
Una ilusión
Una sombra, una ficción
Y el mayor bien es pequeño
Que toda la vida es sueño
Y los sueños sueños son
No temáis, no, de que os falte
Compañía en las desdichas
Pues en duda semejante
De vivir o de morir
No sé cuáles son más grandes
What is life?
An illusion
A shadow, a fiction
And the greatest good is worth nothing at all
For the whole of life is just a dream
And dreams are only dreams
Don’t fear to be alone
In your misfortune
Because I don’t know
If there can be greater worries
Than that of hovering
Between life and death

La Vida Es Sueño (translation)

What is life?
An illusion
A shadow, a fiction
And the greatest good is small
That all life is a dream
And dreams dreams are
Do not fear, no, that you lack
Company in misfortunes
Well in doubt similar
To live or to die
I don't know which ones are bigger
What is life?
An illusion
A shadow, a fiction
And the greatest good is worth nothing at all
For the whole of life is just a dream
And dreams are only dreams
Don't fear to be alone
In your misfortune
Because I don't know
If there can be greater worries
Than that of hovering
between life and death
