"El derecho de la naturaleza es la libertad que cada hombre tiene de usar su propio poder como él mismo quiera para la preservación de su propia naturaleza es decir de su propia vida"

Simplified Meaning:

Everyone has the natural freedom to use their abilities to protect their own life. Imagine you are stranded in a forest. You can use your skills and whatever resources you find to survive because it’s your basic right. This right means you can do what you need to stay safe and alive. For example, if you are hungry, you have the right to find food. If you feel threatened, you can defend yourself. This principle is about having the freedom to take care of yourself and make decisions that help you survive and stay well.
