Bienaventurados - Serrat

La vida te la dan

Pero no te la regalan

La vida se paga

Por más que te pene

Así ha sido desde que

Dios echó al hombre del Edén

Por confundir

Lo que está bien

Con lo que le conviene

Si a plazos o al contado

La vida pasa factura

Rebaña y apura

Hasta las migajas

Que si en cada alegría

Hay una amargura

Todo infortunio esconde alguna ventaja

Bienaventurados los necios

Que se arriesgan a prestar consejos

Porque sern sabios a costa

De los errores ajenos

Bienaventurados los pobres

Porque saben, con certeza

Que no ha de quererles nadie por sus riquezas

Bienaventurados los adictos a emociones fuertes

Porque corren buenos tiempos para la gente marchosa

Bienaventurados los dueños del poder y la gloria

Porque pueden informarnos de que va la cosa

Bienaventurados los que alcancen la cima

Porque ser cuesta abajo el resto del camino

Bienaventurados los que catan el fracaso

Porque reconocerán a sus amigos

En cualquier circunstancia

Por lastimosa que sea

Busca la manera

De comer perdices

Que a pesar de lo alto que

Nos coloquen el listón

Hay que brincar

Con la intención

De ser felices

Bienaventurados los castos

Porque tienen la gracia divina

Y la ocasión de dejar de serlo

A la vuelta de la esquina

Bienaventurados los que aman

Porque tienen a su alcance

Más de un cincuenta por ciento de un gran romance

Bienaventurados los que están en el fondo del pozo

Porque de ahí en adelante

Sólo cabe ir mejorando

Bienaventurados los que presumen de sus redaños

Porque tendrán ocasiones

Para demostrarlo

Bienaventurados los que contrajeron deudas

Porque alguna vez, alguien hizo algo por ellos

Bienaventurados los que lo tienen claro

Porque de ellos es el reino de los ciegos

Life is given to you

But they don't give it to you

life is paid

As much as you penis

That's how it's been ever since

God kicked man out of Eden

for confusing

What is right

With what suits you

If in installments or in cash

Life takes its toll

herd and rush

down to the crumbs

What if in every joy

there is a bitterness

Every misfortune hides some advantage

blessed are the fools

That they risk giving advice

Because they will be wise at the cost

From other people's mistakes

blessed are the poor

because they know for sure

That no one should love them for their riches

Blessed are the addicts of strong emotions

Because these are good times for the marching people

Blessed are the owners of power and glory

Because they can let us know what's going on

Blessed are those who reach the top

'Cause it's downhill the rest of the way

Blessed are those who taste failure

Because they will recognize their friends

in any circumstance

As pitiful as it is

find the way

to eat partridges

that despite how high

They set the bar for us

you have to jump

With the intention

to be happy

blessed are the chaste

Because they have divine grace

And the opportunity to stop being

Just around the corner

blessed are those who love

Because they have within their reach

More than fifty percent of a great romance

Blessed are those at the bottom of the well

Because from then on

It can only improve

Blessed are those who boast of their guts

because they will have occasions

To prove

Blessed are those who contracted debts

Because once, someone did something for them

Blessed are those who have it clear

Because theirs is the kingdom of the blind
