El Día de Mi Suerte [English translation]

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

As a child my mom died

All alone with my old man she left me.

He told me, "You'll never be left alone"

Because he wasn't expecting an illness.

At ten years Dad died

He left with Mom for the afterlife.

And people would say when they saw me cry,

"Don't cry little one, your luck will change."

And when will that be?

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

I kept waiting for my luck

But my life took another course

Surviving in a reality

From which I couldn't even escape.

To eat you must search for the truth

Even if it's against this society.

In jail my friend writes me,

"Don't worry, your luck will change.

Hey, you'll see."

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

Now I find myself here in my solitude

Thinking what will become of my life.

I've got nowhere to return

And nobody I want to spend time with.

If fate betrays me again

I swear I cannot fail.

I'm tired of so much waiting

And I'm sure that my luck will change.

And when will that be?

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

I've suffered my part in life already

Without an inferiority complex.

That's why I never get tired of waiting

Because one day God will help me.

And listen, the day that happens

I'll help everybody

Because sooner or later you'll see

How my lucky day will come

And oh, you'll see.

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

Many times I've stopped to think

That I've never done anyone wrong.

Why has life treated me this way

If I'm just looking for happiness?

I try to please humanity

But my fortune here has been awful.

I haven't lost hope in the fight

And surely my luck will change.

But when will that be?

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

Soon it will come,

My lucky day.

I know that before my death

Surely my luck will change.

I've spent my life waiting

I cannot bear this martyrdom

And I ask, How long will it last?

Maybe I'll be able to endure it after all.

If fate betrays me again

I swear I cannot fail.

I'm tired of so much waiting

And I'm sure that my luck will change.

But when will that be?
