The trees on the hillside, since they haven't revived
For this the larks sing, or the nest hold them down
their "tirana-na-na"
and "tirana-na-no"
For this the larks sing, or the nest hold them down

You are little and beautiful, and the way you are, I love you
You look like a little rose from the shores of Guerrero
with your "tirana-na-na"
and "tirana-na-no"
Like a little rose from the shores of Guerrero

In the middle of the sea a whale sighed
And in those sighs he who dried up the flood spoke
with his "tirana-na-na"
and "tirana-na-no"

My father was a sparrowhawk and I was born to peck and peck
Where I place my beak, I'm like a trumpeter
with my "tirana-na-na"
and "tirana-na-no"

Everyone has their farewells, but none is like this
Like a "tirana-na-na"
and a "tirana-na-no"

Four times five is twenty,
three times seven is twenty-one
Four times five is twenty,
three times seven is twenty-one

With a "tirana-na-na"
and a "tirana-na-no"
