pollito chicken
pollito chicken:
traditional song. arranged by Dan Zanes with additional lyrics by La Bruja
song sample:
lyrics:
Pollito chicken, gallina hen
Lápiz pencil y pluma pen
Ventana window y puerta door
Maestra teacher y piso floor
Pollito chicken comes out of his egg
That the gallina hen in her nest just laid
And the lápiz pencil a tic-tac-toe played
While la pluma the pen some poetry made
Ventana window keeps out the rain
While the puerta la door opens up for Dan Zanes, ¡hola!
Maestra teacher says the word of the day
On the piso floor we all dance and sing
Pollito chicken, gallina hen...
lyrics (translation):
Pollito chicken flies all around
As the gallina hen picks corn from the ground
And the lápiz pencil writes her thoughts down
While the pluma la pen draws on a clown
Window ventana lets in the breeze
While la puerta the door slams when you sneeze
Teacher maestra shows how to say please
On the piso the floor we shake our knees
Pollito chicken, gallina hen...
My abuelita – that's Spanish for grandma
She would cook and sing at the same time
She knew my Spanish was just so, so, so, so
She taught me this rhyme ¡Abuelita!
Pollito chicken, gallina hen...
