Your life is your life
don't let it be clubbed
into dank submission.
Be on the watch.
There are ways out.
There is a light somewhere.
It may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
Be on the watch.
The gods will offer you chances.
Know them.
Take them.
You can't beat death but
you can beat death in life,
sometimes.
And the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
Your life is your life.
Know it while you have it.
You are marvelous
the gods wait to delight
in you.

Una traducció "sui generis":
La teva vida és la teva vida
no deixis que ha picat
en la submissió humida.
Estigui pendent.
Hi ha maneres de sortir.
Hi ha un algun lloc de llum.
Potser no és molt més lleuger però
és millor que la foscor.
Estigui pendent.
Els déus li oferiran oportunitats.
Coneix.
Porteu.
No es pot superar la mort, però
que pot vèncer la mort a la vida,
vegades.
I com més sovint s'aprèn a fer-ho,
més llum hi haurà.
La teva vida és la teva vida.
Sàpiga que mentre vostè ho té.
Ets meravellosa
els déus esperen per delit
en tu.

I una d'aquelles perles que no tenen cabuda en cap closca d'ostra:
You can never hold back spring
You can be sure that I will never
Stop believing
The blushing rose will climb
Spring ahead or fall behind
Winter dreams the same dream
Every time
You can never hold back spring
Even though you've lost your way
The world keeps dreaming of spring
So close your eyes
Open you heart
To one who's dreaming of you
You can never hold back spring
Baby
Remember everything that spring
Can bring
You can never hold back spring
