agradecería si me ayudaran con esta frase, porque no me gusta como suena literlamente
In the day
In the night
Say it all
Say it right
You either got it
Or you don't
You either stand or you fall
When your will is broken
In the night
Say it all
Say it right
You either got it

It would be nice to see how you've translated the other lines so that the suggested translation for "say it right" goes well with the rest of the piece.
I like "Di lo bien" because it's short, to the point, and sounds very personal, which to me matches the tone of the poem.
Hope that helps!

Yo no optaría por ser literal.
Traducir poesía o canciones es distinto de lo habitual.
De día
de noche,
dilo todo
cuéntalo.
O lo tienes,
o no.

: Totalmente de acuerdo, pero la repetición del verbo puede ser intencionada...

Pero de las respuestas dadas, sin embargo, nadie enfatiza en la repetición del verbo.

: In my opinion, the repetition is an essential element of the flow of the poem.

Maybe, Stacey. But I would translate it this way.
