Translation

Al llegar la estación cariñosa

When the loving season arrives

Donde alegres cantaban las aves

Where the birds used to sing joyfully

Vamos pues mi querida rosita

Let's go then, my beloved Rosita

A escuchar estos dulces cantares

To listen to these sweet songs


Aquí traigo las redes rosita

Here I bring the nets, Rosita

Para ver cuantos puedo agarrar

To see how many I can catch

Pajarillos que canten alegres

Birds that sing joyfully

Que a buen precio los han de pagar

They will surely pay a good price for them


Ya cayó un pajarillo jilguero

A goldfinch bird has fallen

Ya cayó un pajarillo silvestre

A wild bird has fallen

Ya cayó, un par de gorriones

A pair of sparrows has fallen

Ya cayó el gavilán prisionero

The hawk has fallen, a prisoner


Cuando a méxico vaya rosita

When you go to Mexico, Rosita

A venderlos a la capital

To sell them in the capital

Cinco pesos será el menos precio

Five pesos will be the least price

Que ellos puedan valer por allá

That they could be worth over there


Si al pasar te pregunta una dama

If a lady asks you as she passes by

Que si son pajarillos silvestres

If they are wild birds

Les dirás que su tierra no es esta

Tell her their land is not here

Que los traes de tierra caliente

That you bring them from a warm land


Ya se va y se retira rosita

Now Rosita is leaving and going away

Se despide con gusto y afán

She bids farewell with pleasure and zeal

Soy señores la pajarerita

I am, gentlemen, the bird seller

Quien de ustedes con ella se va

Who among you will go with her?
