Klipp Tal-Vidjo
Lirika
And now, the end is near
– U issa, it-tmiem huwa viċin
And so I face the final curtain
– U għalhekk niffaċċja l purtiera finali
My friend, I’ll say it clear
– Ħabib tiegħi, ngħidha ċara
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
– Jien ser niddikjara l-każ tiegħi, li jien ċert
I’ve lived a life that’s full
– Għext ħajja mimlija
I traveled each and every highway
– Ivvjaġġajt kull awtostrada
And more, much more than this
– U aktar, ħafna iktar minn dan
I did it my way
– Jien għamilt it triq tiegħi
Regrets, I’ve had a few
– Jiddispjaċih, kelli ftit
But then again, too few to mention
– Imma mbagħad għal darb’oħra, ftit wisq biex insemmu
I did what I had to do
– Jien għamilt dak li kelli nagħmel
And saw it through without exemption
– U rawha mingħajr eżenzjoni
I planned each charted course
– Ippjanajt kull kors iċċartjat
Each careful step along the byway
– Kull pass bir-reqqa tul il-passaġġ
And more, much more than this
– U aktar, ħafna iktar minn dan
I did it my way
– Jien għamilt it triq tiegħi
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
– Iva, kien hemm żminijiet, jien ċert li kont taf
When I bit off more than I could chew
– Meta gidimt iktar milli stajt tomgħod
But through it all, when there was doubt
– Iżda permezz ta’dan kollu, meta kien hemm dubju
I ate it up and spit it out
– Kiltha u bżiqha
I faced it all, and I stood tall
– Iffaċċjajt kollox, u bqajt twil
And did it my way
– U għamilha mod tiegħi
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried
– Ħabbejt, dħakt u bkejt
I’ve had my fill, my share of losing
– Kelli l-mili tiegħi, is-sehem tiegħi li nitlef
And now, as tears subside
– U issa, hekk kif id-dmugħ jonqos
I find it all so amusing
– Insibha kollha daqshekk divertenti
To think I did all that
– Biex naħseb li għamilt dak kollu
And may I say, not in a shy way
– U nista’ngħid, mhux b’mod jitmeżmżu
Oh, no, oh, no, not me
– Oh, le, oh, le, mhux jien
I did it my way
– Jien għamilt it triq tiegħi
For what is a man, what has he got?
– Għal dak li hu raġel, dak li ltqajna?
If not himself, then he has naught
– Jekk mhux hu stess, allura m’għandu xejn
To say the things he truly feels
– Biex ngħid l affarijiet li verament iħoss
And not the words of one who kneels
– U mhux il kliem ta’wieħed li jinkina
The record shows I took the blows
– Ir rekord juri ħadt id daqqiet
And did it my way
– U għamilha mod tiegħi
Yes, it was my way
– Iva, kien mod tiegħi
