‘The soul of my lover’ would be translated as ‘el alma de mi amante’ [or ‘amado’ – NOT ‘amando’]. This genre lines up with the folk revival in America and Europe, as all over the world people fought for their rights, such as race, gender, and more.

The word ‘perfecto’ in the first verse actually means ‘perfect’, not ‘perfectly’, but has been used by Violeta Parra Sandoval presumably for rhythmic reasons: a bit of poetic licence. Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto Me dio dos luceros, que cuando los abro Perfecto distingo lo negro del blanco Y en el alto cielo su fondo estrellado Y en las multitudes el hombre que yo amo. Parra composed "Gracias a la vida" in La Paz in 1966 , and the song was released on Las Últimas Composiciones, the last album Parra published before committing suicide in 1967. The song is one of Parra's most renowned and is performed throughout the world, and remains as one of the most covered It’s a moot point whether the original writer meant what we in English would mean by ‘the life’ or simply ‘life’ – hence the word in brackets.

Most notably, Joan Baez, the leader of folk in the States, covered it in 1974. I made my translation of Gracias a la vida for my wife a few years ago (we’re both fans of Joan Baez). The song keeps to this genre, therefore including traditional folk elements such as indigenous sounds, and was not meant for commercial success. ‘The way to/toward the soul of my lover’ [i.e the route, how to get there] would be ‘el camino/la ruta del alma de mi amante’ [or ‘amado’].
