La Burrita
Arre que llegando al caminito aquimichú aquimichú,
Arre que llegando al caminito aquimichu aquimichu.
A qui mi chula mi burrita aunque vaya enojadita
Porque no le di su alfalfa porque no le di su maíz.
Arre que llegando al caminito aquemichu aquemichú,
Arre que llegando al caminito aquemichu aquemichú.
A que mechuda tan bonita me refiero a la burrita
Y si para la trompita es pa’ que me guste más.
No te fijes mi burrita no te vayas a espantar
Que una mula en la milpita se ha venido a retozar.
No hay cuidado la burrita no se puede ya espantar
Como siempre andan juntitas ya se supo acostumbrar.
Arre que llegando al caminito aquemichu aquemichú,
Arre que llegando al caminito aquemichu aquemichú.
Ah que la burra tan flaquita necesita su pastito
Si se queda paradita se la da mi capitán.
Pobrecita la burrita ya no quiere caminar
Da unos pasos pa’ delante y otros tantos para atrás.
Arre, arre mi burrita ya no me hagas enojar
Pos ya pronto llegaremos y te van a dar tu maíz
No se ponga tan arisca que se puede tropezar
Y el tropiezo va a ser duro porque duro es el capitán.
No se ponga tantos moños porque puede resultar
Que esos moños sean adorno de una gorra militar.
The Little Donkey
Arre arriving at the little path aquimichú aquimichú,
Arre arriving at the little path aquimichu aquimichu.
Here my pretty little donkey even though she's a bit angry
Because I didn't give her her alfalfa because I didn't give her her corn.
Arre arriving at the little path aquemichu aquemichú,
Arre arriving at the little path aquemichu aquemichú.
What a beautiful hairy one I'm talking about the little donkey
And if she uses her trunk it's to make me like her more.
Don't worry my little donkey don't get scared
A mule in the cornfield has come to frolic.
No worries little donkey you can't get scared
As they always go together she got used to it.
Arre arriving at the little path aquemichu aquemichú,
Arre arriving at the little path aquemichu aquemichú.
Oh, the skinny little donkey needs her grass
If she stays still my captain will give it to her.
Poor little donkey doesn't want to walk anymore
Takes a few steps forward and then as many back.
Arre, arre my little donkey don't make me angry
We'll arrive soon and you'll get your corn.
Don't be so stubborn you might trip
And the fall will be hard because the captain is tough.
Don't be so fancy because it might turn out
That those fancy things become decorations on a military cap.
