Waltzing Matilda
Once a jolly swagman, camped by a billabong,
Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me,
And he sang as he sat and waited till his billy boiled,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong,
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me,
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Up rode the squatter mounted on his thoroughbred,
Down come the troopers, one, two, three,
Whose that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me,
Whose that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Up jumped the swagman, sprang into the billabong,
Drowning himself by the coolibah tree,
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me,
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Bailando Matilda
Un día un alegre vagabundo acampó junto a un billabong,
Bajo la sombra de un árbol coolibah,
Y cantaba mientras observaba y esperaba a que su pava hirviera,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo.
Bailando Matilda, bailando Matilda,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo,
Y cantaba mientras se sentaba y esperaba a que su pava hirviera,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo.
Bajó un cordero a beber en ese billabong,
El vagabundo saltó y lo agarró con alegría,
Y cantaba mientras metía ese cordero en su bolsa de comida,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo.
Bailando Matilda, bailando Matilda,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo,
Y cantaba mientras metía ese cordero en su bolsa de comida,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo.
Llegó el terrateniente montado en su purasangre,
Bajaron los policías, uno, dos, tres,
¿Quién es ese alegre cordero que tienes en tu bolsa de comida?
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo.
Bailando Matilda, bailando Matilda,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo,
¿Quién es ese alegre cordero que tienes en tu bolsa de comida?
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo.
El vagabundo saltó, se lanzó al billabong,
Ahogándose junto al árbol coolibah,
Y su fantasma puede ser escuchado al pasar por ese billabong,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo.
Bailando Matilda, bailando Matilda,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo,
Y su fantasma puede ser escuchado al pasar por ese billabong,
Vendrás bailando Matilda conmigo.
