A Mi Manera

El final, se acerca ya lo esperaré serenamente

The end is approaching, I will wait for it calmly

Ya vez yo he sido así te lo diré sinceramente

See, I have been this way, I will tell you sincerely

Viví la inmensidad, sin conocer jamás fronteras

I lived the immensity, without ever knowing borders

Jugué sin descansar, y a mi manera

I played without resting, and in my own way

Jamás viví un amor que para mí fuera importante

I never lived a love that was important to me

Corté solo una flor y lo mejor de cada instante

I picked only one flower and the best of each moment

Viajé y disfruté, no se si más que otro cualquiera

I traveled and enjoyed, I don't know if more than anyone else

Si bien todo esto fué a mi manera

Even though all of this was in my own way

Tal vez lloré o talvez reí, tal vez gané o tal vez perdí

Maybe I cried or maybe I laughed, maybe I won or maybe I lost

Ahora se que fuí feliz, que si lloré también amé

Now I know I was happy, that if I cried, I also loved

Puedo seguir hasta el final... A mi manera

I can go on until the end... In my own way

Quizá también lloré cuando yo más me divertía

Maybe I also cried when I was having the most fun

Quizá yo desprecié aquello que no comprendía

Maybe I despised what I didn't understand

Hoy sé que firme fuí y que afronté ser como era

Today I know I was firm and faced being as I was

Y así logre vivir pero a mi manera

And so I managed to live, but in my own way

Porqué sabrás que un hombre al fin

Because you will know that a man in the end

Conocerás por su vivir no hay porqué hablar

You will know him by how he lived, there is no need to speak

Ni que decir, ni recordar, ni que fingir

Neither to say, nor to remember, nor to pretend

Puedo seguir hasta el final a mi manera

I can go on until the end, in my own way
