Lyrics

Pajarillo, pajarillo,
pajarillo barranqueño,
qué bonitos ojos tienes,
lástima que tengan dueño.
¿Qué pajarillo es aquél,
qué canta en aquella lima?
anda y dile que no cante,
que mi corazón lastima.
¿Qué pajarillo es aquél,
que canta en aquella higuera?
anda y dile que no cante,
que espere a que yo me muera.

Lyrics translation

Bird, Bird,
barranqueño bird,
what beautiful eyes you have,
too bad they own them.
What little bird is that,
what do you sing in that lima?
go and tell him not to sing,
that my heart hurts.
What little bird is that,
what do you sing in that fig tree?
go and tell him not to sing,
wait till I die.
