Translation

Duermo en el aljibe

I sleep in the well

Con mi camisón apolillado

With my moth-eaten nightgown

Don dolón dolón

Don dolón dolón

Duermo en el aljibe con mi camisón

I sleep in the well with my nightgown


No son las polillas

They are not moths

Son diez mil estrellas que se asoman

They are ten thousand stars peeking

Don dolón dolón

Don dolón dolón

Por entre los pliegues de mi camisón

Through the folds of my nightgown


Cuando sale el Sol

When the sun rises

Tengo que meterme en el aljibe

I have to go into the well

Don dolón dolón

Don dolón dolón

Duermo en el aljibe con mi camisón

I sleep in the well with my nightgown


Cuando yo aparezco

When I appear

Todos duermen y la araña teje

Everyone sleeps, and the spider weaves

Don dolón dolón

Don dolón dolón

Salgo del aljibe con mi camisón

I come out of the well with my nightgown


A ver si adivinan

Let's see if they guess

A ver si adivinan quién es esta

Let's see if they guess who this is

Don dolón dolón

Don dolón dolón

Que está en el aljibe con su camisón

Who is in the well with their nightgown
