Lyrics
And now, the end is near
– Nunc autem prope est finis
And so I face the final curtain
– Et sic faciem ultimam velum
My friend, I’ll say it clear
– Amicus meus, ut patet dicere
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
– Me dijo ella que la llamara, pero yo nunca la llame
I’ve lived a life that’s full
– Je veux une vie pépère tout de même
I traveled each and every highway
– Totam et totam vitae
And more, much more than this
– Et plus, multo magis quam hoc
I did it my way
– Ego feci viam meam
Regrets, I’ve had a few
– Paenitet, ego quoque pauci
But then again, too few to mention
– Sed tunc iterum, nimis pauca commemorare
I did what I had to do
– Feci quod mihi faciendum erat
And saw it through without exemption
– Et viderunt eum et non viderunt
I planned each charted course
– Quisque charted cogitavit cursum
Each careful step along the byway
– Quisque diligenter gradus per byway
And more, much more than this
– Et plus, multo magis quam hoc
I did it my way
– Ego feci viam meam
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
– Sic, fuerunt tempora, im ‘ certus vos sciebant
When I bit off more than I could chew
– Cum aliquantulus off magis quam potui ruminant
But through it all, when there was doubt
– Dimittas, cum mihi consulendi causa fuerit, ut dubitare desinerem
I ate it up and spit it out
– Et comedit eum et expulit eam
I faced it all, and I stood tall
– Ego adversus omnes, et stetit alta
And did it my way
– Et per nos similiter est locutus
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried
– Venditor ridet ridetque et plorat
I’ve had my fill, my share of losing
– Di me perdant — mel.
And now, as tears subside
– Et nunc, sicut lacrimae desinunt
I find it all so amusing
– Indipendentemente da ciò ci siamo divertiti
To think I did all that
– Ego feci omnia quae cogitare
And may I say, not in a shy way
– Et dicam: non in via
Oh, no, oh, no, not me
– Non, non, non, non
I did it my way
– Ego feci viam meam
For what is a man, what has he got?
– Sed quid est homo, quid habet?
If not himself, then he has naught
– Si non, eadem ratione standum [est] in primo.
To say the things he truly feels
– Quae vere sentit dicere
And not the words of one who kneels
– Non e adunque alcun dubbio, che ritornando il suo
The record shows I took the blows
– Quod recordum ostendit tulit me ictibus exactis occidentes
And did it my way
– Et per nos similiter est locutus
Yes, it was my way
– Ita, quod esset mihi viam
