Translation of the song lyrics Honrar la Vida - Lito Vitale, Sandra Mihanovich

Honrar la Vida (original)

No!
Permanecer y transcurrir
No es es perdurar, no es existir
Ni honrar la vida!
Hay tantas maneras de no ser
Tanta conciencia sin saber
Adormecida
Merecer la vida, no es callar y consentir
Tantas injusticias repetidas
Es una virtud, es dignidad
Y es la actitud de identidad
Más difinida!
Eso de durar y transcurrir
No nos dá derecho a presumir
Porque no es lo mismo que vivir
Honrar la vida!
No!
Permanecer y transcurrir
No siempre quiere sugerir
Honrar la vida!
Hay tanta pequeña vanidad
En nuestra tonta humanidad
Enceguecida
Merecer la vida es erguirse vertical
Más allá del mal, de las caídas
Es igual que darle a la verdad
Y a nuestra propia libertad
La bienvenida!
Eso de durar y transcurrir
No nos da derecho a presumir
Porque no es lo mismo que vivir
Honrar la vida!

(translation)

Do not!
stay and pass
It is not to endure, it is not to exist
Nor honor life!
There are so many ways not to be
So much awareness without knowing
numb
Deserving life is not silence and consent
So many repeated injustices
It is a virtue, it is dignity
And it is the attitude of identity
More defined!
That of lasting and passing
Doesn't give us bragging rights
Because it is not the same as living
Honor life!
Do not!
stay and pass
Don't always want to suggest
Honor life!
There is so much little vanity
In our foolish humanity
blinded
To deserve life is to stand upright
Beyond evil, beyond falls
It's the same as hitting the truth
And to our own freedom
The welcome!
That of lasting and passing
Doesn't give us bragging rights
Because it is not the same as living
Honor life!
