Los Bichos Del Campo

The Critters of the Field

Los Bichos Del Campo

The dogs are bullfighting, gotta watch out because there's somethingEstán toreando los perros, hay que mirar porque hay algo
Just now the teros were singing, someone was coming through the fieldRecién cantaban los teros, alguien venía cortando campo
The harmful weasel has entered the henhouseLa comadreja dañina se ha adentrado al gallinero
I've set up the trap, let it come back 'cause I'm waiting hereYa preparé la trampera, deja que vuelva que acá la espero

A little dead snake was being taken by a chimangoA una culebrita muerta se la llevaba un chimango
And the little calf was bleating because it was missing the cowY el ternerito balaba porque a la vaca andaba extrañando
The calandria was telling, to the goldfinch and the doveLa calandria le contaba, al jilguero y al palomo
Watch out 'cause here comes Mr. Blackbird, the one who's never backed downCuidado que ahí viene Don Tordo, ese que nunca ha agachado el lomo

The lizard was eating the hen's eggsLo huevos a la gallina el lagarto le comía
Geese, ducks, and pygmies, that's why they never had offspringGansos, patos y pigmeos, por eso nunca sacaban crías
A little ovenbird has made a nest on the roof of the housesUn hornerito ha hecho nido en el techo de las casas
I look at it and it brings me joy how beautifully it passes with its nestLo miro y me da alegría que con su hornera lindo lo pasa

The cat caught a mouse in the banana tree groveEl gato cazó una laucha en la parda del guineo
And the owl from a branch quietly watches himY la lechuza de un palo bien calladita lo relojea
The calandria was telling, to the goldfinch and the doveLa calandria le contaba, al jilguero y al palomo
Watch out 'cause here comes Mr. Blackbird, the one who's never backed downCuidado que ahí viene Don Tordo, ese que nunca ha agachado el lomo
