El fin muy cerca está, lo afrontaré serenamente, ya ves, yo he sido así, te lo diré sinceramente Viví la intensidad y no encontré jamás fronteras jugué sin descansar y a mi manera.
Jamás viví un amor que para mí fuera importante tomé solo la flor y lo mejor de cada instante Viajé y disfruté, no se si más que otro cualquiera si bien, todo eso fué a mi manera.
Tal vez lloré, tal vez reí, tal vez gané o tal vez perdí ahora sé que fuí feliz, que si lloré también amé y todo fué, puedo decir, a mi manera.
Quizás también dudé cuando mejor me divertía quizás yo desprecié aquello que no comprendía hoy sé que infierno fuí y que afronté ser como era y así logré seguir, a mi manera.
Porque ya sabrás que el hombre al fin conocerás por su vivir no hay porque hablar, ni que decir, ni recordar, ni hay que fingir puedo llegar hasta el final, A MI MANERA!! __________________________________
And now, the end is near, And so I face the final curtain, My friend. I'll say it clear, I'll stay my case of which I'm certain. I've lived a life that's full. I traveled each and every highway, And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
Regrets, I've had a few, But then again, too few to mention. I did what I had to do, And saw it thru without exemption. I planned each charted course, Each careful step along the byway, And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew, When I bit off more than I could chew, But thru it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up, and spit it out. I faced it all, and I stood tall, And did it my way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill; my share of losing. And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing. To think I did all that; And may I say - not in a shy way, "No, oh no not me, I did it my way".
For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught. To say the things he truly feels; And not the words of one who kneels. The record shows I took the blows - And did it my way!
