Canción de Los Pastores

Shepherds' Song

Canción de Los Pastores

They say shepherds smell like woolDicen que los pastores huelen a lana
My little shepherd smells like broomPastorcillo es el mio huele a retama
Get off the balconies, childQuitate niño de los balcones

Because if you don't remove yourself from the flower bouquetPorque si no te quitas ramo de flores
I'll call the authorities to imprison youLlamare a la justica que te aprisone
With the chains of my loveCon las cadenas de mis amores

They say shepherds smell like tallowDicen que los pastores huelen a sebo
My little shepherd smells like rosemaryPastorcillo es el mio huele a romero
Get off the balconiesQuitate niño de los balcones

BecausePorque

A widow gives a hundred and fifty realesCiento cinquenta reales da una viuda
For the cassock, oh my dear mother of a priestPor la sotana mare mamita mia de un pare cura
And the priest responds very cleverlyY el cura le responde con mucho acierto
I won't give my cassock, mother, because I'll go to jailYo no doy mi sotana mamita porque voy preso

They say shepherds smell like woolDicen que los pastores huelen a lana
