Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
Para estrechar la mano de un amigo
Y poder asistir como testigo
Al milagro de cada amanecer
Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
Para tener la opción de la balanza
Sopesar la derrota y la esperanza
Con la gloria y el miedo de caer
Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
Para entender que el honesto y el perverso
Son dueños por igual del universo
Aunque tengan distinto parecer
Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
Para callar cuando habla el que más sabe
Aprender a escuchar, ésa es la clave
Si se tiene intenciones de saber
Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
Y lo digo sin falsos triunfalismos
La victoria total, la de uno mismo
Se concreta en el ser y en el no ser
Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
Para cantarle a la gente y a la rosa
Y al perro y al amor y a cualquier cosa
Que pueda el sentimiento recoger
Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
Para tener acceso a la fortuna
De ser río en lugar de ser laguna
De ser lluvia en lugar de ver llover
Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
Para comer a conciencia la manzana
Sin el miedo ancestral a la sotana
Ni a la venganza final de lucifer
Pero sé, bien que sé
Que algún día también me moriré
Si ahora vivo contento con mi suerte
Sabe dios qué pensaré cuando mi muerte
Cuál será en la agonía mi balance, no lo sé
Nunca estuve en ese trance
Pero sé, bien que sé
Que en mi viaje final escucharé
El ambiguo tañir delas campanas
Saludando mi adiós, y otra mañana
Y otra voz, como yo, con otro acento
Cantará a los cuatro vientos
Qué suerte he tenido de nacer
