Life is the Only Teacher [Italian translation]

Beautiful lady walking by

bearing the mark of pride,

life is the only teacher,

life is the only teacher,

live it and be satisfied.

Beautiful lady, tell me, why

let yourself be denied?

Life is the only teacher,

life is the only teacher,

live it and be satisfied.

Opportunity is lost

to those who sit weighing the cost.

Everything is there to reach for,

life is the only teacher.

Never let the chance be missed,

for luck is the lady to kiss.

Love is there for us to seek for

life is the only teacher.

Beautiful lady, I can see

you know the truth inside,

life is the only teacher,

life is the only teacher,

live it and be satisfied.

Beautiful lady, turn the key,

why leave so much untried?

Life is the only teacher,

life is the only teacher,

live it and be satisfied.

Opportunities are free

to all those who are willing to be freely

taken by the wind that blows,

life is the only teacher.

Never let the joy be stilled

for life is a cup to be filled up

and drink a toast to every moment,

life is the only teacher.

Beautiful lady, have no fears,

forget all the tears you cried,

life is the only teacher,

life is the only teacher,

live it and be satisfied.
