Translation of the song lyrics Es Tu Vida - Madball

Es Tu Vida (original)

Es tu vida
Pelea por tu vida
Es mi vida
Yo peleo por la mia
Si es asi
En esta vida
Las cosas negativas nos enseñan
Pero, no
Son los dueños de mi
Para arriba
Las cosas positivas
Vienen cuando uno quiere
Si tu lo quiere'
Nadie ha caminado
En mis zapatos
Todos caminamos
Distintos pasos
Hay fracasos
Y tiempos altos
Pa' arriba, pa' abajo
Aqui aguantamos
El ciclo de consecuencias no para
El ciclo de violencia
Presente
En mi cara
En esta vida
Las cosas negativas nos enseñan
Pero, no
Son los dueños de mi
Para arriba
Las cosas positivas
Vienen cuando uno quiere
Si tu lo quiere'
Es tu vida
Pelea por tu vida
Es mi vida
Yo peleo por la vida
Si es asi
¿Cómo logramos llegar a ese punto?
¿Cómo logramos?
¿Cómo llegamos?
Peleando
Luchando
Peleando
Luchando
Si es asi
En esta vida
Las cosas negativas nos enseñan
Pero, no
Son los dueños de mi

Es Tu Vida (translation)

It is your life—a lamp lit for your path,
Wrestle for it, as a falcon for its flight,
It is my life—my vein of buried quartz,
I guard it as a wolf guards dusk from night.
If thus it is—
Upon this earthbound stage,
The shadows teach us—like cold rain on copper leaves—
Yet, no—
They do not clutch the scepter of my soul,
Upward, toward the hunger of the dawn,
Bright things—silver seeds within the loam—
They sprout when willing hands have called them forth,
If you desire, if your will is flame—
No foot has ever wandered
Through the grit and hollows of my shoes,
Each walks—their gait a separate tide—
With steps tuned to peculiar, secret blues.
There are falls—
And days that ring like brass above the hills,
Upward, downward—
Here, we shoulder the storm's full weight,
The wheel of consequence turns on, unbroken,
The spiral of violence—
Alive,
Flashing its teeth in my very face.
Here upon this mortal stage,
The darkness chisels lessons on our skin,
But, no—
Their fetters will not bind my name within.
Upward—
The bright things—chalice-full and rare—
Arrive at the hour when summoned by desire,
If you reach for them—
It is your life—your tapestry unspooled—
Defend it, as a lioness her den—
It is my life—
I battle for the pulse within its thread—
If thus it is—
How did we reach the iron threshold?
How did we shape the crossing?
How did our footprints learn the way?
By fighting—
By struggling—
By fighting—
By struggling—
If thus it is—
Upon this earthbound stage,
The darkness chisels lessons on our skin,
Yet, no—
Their fetters will not bind my name within.
