El Picaflor

The Hummingbird

El Picaflor

I wish I were a hummingbird,Quisiera ser picaflor,
And that you were a CarnationY que tu fueras Clavel
To suck the honey frompara chuparte la miel,
The bud of your mouth.del capullo de tu boca.

You look at me, you laughMe mirás, te ríes
But you don't know, ungratefulpero no sabes, ingrata
That I have another better than you.que tengo otra mejor que tú.

That little ribbon that looks so good on her,Esa cintita que bien le queda,
In the hair of my girlen los cabellos de mi cholita
Whistles, whistles, captivating little whistlersilba, silba silbadorita cautivadorita
