Bonbon I (The Chocolate King)

Cri-Cri

Bombón I (El Rey de Chocolate)

Hubo un Rey en un castillo
Con murallas de membrillo
Con sus patios de almendrita
Y sus torres de turrón

Era el Rey de Chocolate
Con nariz de cacahuate
Y a pesar de ser tan dulce
Tenía amargo el corazón

La Princesa Caramelo
No quería vivir con él
Pues al Rey, en vez de pelo
Le brotaba pura miel, ay

Aquel Rey, al ver su suerte
Comenzó a llorar tan fuerte
Que, al llorar, tiró el castillo
Y un merengue lo aplastó

En los bosques del castillo
Han sembrado un gran barquillo
Y lo riegan tempranito
Con refrescos de limón

En el lago, la cascada
Es de azúcar granulada
Y el arroyo, en vez de piedras
Va arrastrando colación

La Princesa Caramelo
A su paje pirulí
Lo mandó con el monarca
A decir por fin que sí

El Marqués de Piloncillo
Mayordomo del castillo
Lo ha limpiado con la lengua
Para que se case el Rey

Bonbon I (The Chocolate King)

There was a King in a castle
With walls of quince
With its little almond patios
And its nougat towers

He was the Chocolate King
With a peanut nose
And despite being so sweet
His heart was bitter

The Caramel Princess
Did not want to live with him
Because instead of hair on the King
Pure honey sprouted, oh

That King, upon seeing his fate
Started crying so hard
That, while crying, he knocked down the castle
And a meringue crushed him

In the castle's forests
They have planted a big wafer
And they water it early
With lemon sodas

In the lake, the waterfall
Is made of granulated sugar
And the stream, instead of stones
Is dragging confectionery

The Caramel Princess
Sent her lollipop page
To go to the monarch
And finally say yes

The Marquis of Brown Sugar
Butler of the castle
Has cleaned it with his tongue
So that the King will marry
