Juancito Caminador
Juancito caminador
Murió en un lejano puerto-
El prestidigitador
Poca cosa deja al muerto
Terminada su función
Canción, paloma y baraja
Todo cabe en una caja
Todo, menos la canción
Ponle luto a la pianola
Al conejito, a la estrella
Al barquito, a la botella
Al botellón, a la bola
Música de barracón
Canción, baraja y paloma
Flor de campo sin aroma
Todo, menos la canción
Ponle luto a la veleta
Al gallo, al reloj de cuco
Al fonógrafo, al trabuco
Al vaso y a la carpeta
Su prestidigitación
Canción, paloma y baraja
El tiempo humilla y ultraja
Todo, menos la canción
Mucha muerte a poca vida
Que lo entierre de una vez
La reina del ajedrez
Y un poeta lo despida
Truco mágico, ilusión
Canción, baraja y paloma
Que todo en broma se toma
Todo, menos la canción

Died in a distant port-
The magician
Leaves little to the dead
After his act is done
Song, dove, and deck of cards
Everything fits in a box
Everything, except the song
Put mourning on the player piano
On the little rabbit, on the star
On the little boat, on the bottle
On the big bottle, on the ball
Music from the barracks
Song, deck of cards, and dove
Field flower without scent
Everything, except the song
Put mourning on the weathervane
On the rooster, on the cuckoo clock
On the phonograph, on the blunderbuss
On the glass and on the folder
His prestidigitation
Song, dove, and deck of cards
Time humiliates and abuses
Everything, except the song
Much death to little life
Let him be buried once and for all
The queen of chess
And a poet bid him farewell
Magic trick, illusion
Song, deck of cards, and dove
That everything is taken as a joke
Everything, except the song
