What a joy to be with you again, Hive and 3speak beautiful people! I am pleased to bring another poem to music, following the extraordinary #musicalizingpoems initiative devised by fellow musician @manuelmusic to promote the work of many extraordinary poets who make life on our platform. Join us! Here is the link of the initiative. Today I present you a poem titled “De la Vida” by @elgranpoeta.

Letra: De la vida

De la vida amo lo sencillo,
y de tus ojos el hermoso brillo;
no puedo construirte un castillo,
porque no tengo dinero en mi bolsillo.
De la vida adoro la humildad,
que me brinda dulce espontaneidad;
no choca con la diversidad,
ni se niega a la felicidad.

De la vida espero tanto,
no de vivirla como un santo;
me refiero a un sentimiento,
que esté libre de arrepentimiento.

De la vida quiero más inteligencia,
borrar los seres de la indiferencia;
valorar más esa inocencia,
que me produce tu presencia.
Por @elgranpoeta.

About Life

About life I love the simple things,
and about your eyes the beautiful shine;
I can't build you a castle
because I have no money in my pocket.
About life I adore humility,
that gives me sweet spontaneity;
it does not clash with diversity,
nor does it deny itself happiness.

I hope so much from life
not to live it as a saint;
I mean a feeling
that is free from regret.

From life I want more intelligence,
erase the beings of indifference;
to value that innocence more,
the one that your presence produces me.
By @elgranpoeta.
