Muñequita Rota

Broken Doll

Muñequita Rota

This is the story of a broken doll that fell into the waterEsta es la historia de una muñequita rota que cayó en el agua
She was so small, no one knows exactly how, but she drownedEra tan pequeña, nadie sabe muy bien cómo pero se ahogó

Since she was made of cloth, she sank right awayComo era de tela, se hundió enseguida
Now she smiles at me from the bottom of the seaAhora me sonríe desde el fondo del mar

Broken when she fell into the waterRota al caer en agua
That doll who was just trying to floatEsa muñeca que trataba solo de flotar
No longer remembers that the soldier wanted to save herYa no recuerda que el soldado la quiso salvar
She couldn't hold on to anythingElla no supo agarrarse a ninguna parte
And there she remained, brokenY ahí rota se quedó

A long time ago, a little tin soldier asked for her hand in marriageHace mucho tiempo un soldadito de plomo le pidió la mano
She was so pretty that without hesitation, she acceptedElla tan bonita sin dudarlo ni un momento se la concedió
She put on a white linen dressSe puso un vestido de lino blanco
And he, looking very smart, took her awayÉl muy arreglado se la llevó

Look, my doll, how much I love youMira, muñeca mía, cómo te quiero
And how I'm going to take care of youY cómo voy a cuidarte
Don't be afraid, I'll never let you goNo tengas miedo, nunca voy a soltarte
And the doll smiledY la muñeca sonrió
Look, my doll, how much I love youMira, muñeca mía, cómo te quiero
And how I'm going to take care of youY cómo voy a cuidarte
Don't be afraid, I'll never let you goNo tengas miedo, nunca voy a soltarte
And the doll smiledY la muñeca sonrió

That same night, the stars accompanied them through the portEsa misma noche por el puerto las estrellas les acompañaron
They walked happily and close together along the pier in MayIban paseando muy felices y juntitos por el muelle en mayo
He went to find her the only flowerÉl se fue a buscarle la única flor
And she, so flirtatious, looked at herself in the waterElla tan coqueta en el agua se miró

Broken when she fell into the waterRota al caer en agua
That doll who was just trying to floatEsa muñeca que trataba solo de flotar
No longer remembers that the soldier wanted to save herYa no recuerda que el soldado la quiso salvar
She couldn't hold on to anythingElla no supo agarrarse a ninguna parte
And there she remained, brokenY ahí rota se quedó

Broken when she fell into the waterRota al caer en agua
That doll who was just trying to floatEsa muñeca que trataba solo de flotar
No longer remembers that the soldier wanted to save herYa no recuerda que el soldado la quiso salvar
She couldn't hold on to anythingElla no supo agarrarse a ninguna parte
And there she remained, brokenY ahí rota se quedó
And there she remained, brokenY ahí rota se quedó
And there she remained, brokenY ahí rota se quedó
