Vuela, Vuela Palomita
Miguel Aceves Mejía
Lyrics
Translation
Bailen ba, bailen bailen palomitas y
Dance, dance, dance little doves
Y no de y no dejen de bailar
And don't, and don't stop dancing
Que aunque esté, que aunque esté el palomo triste
Even if the dove is sad
Bailando, bailando se va a alegrar
Dancing, dancing, it will cheer up
Si me das, si me das esa boquita
If you give me, if you give me that little mouth
Yo te voy, yo me voy a saborear
I'm going, I'm going to savor it
Tú no sa, tu no sabes rancherita
You don't know, you don't know, my country girl
Lo boni, lo bonito que es amar
How beautiful, how beautiful it is to love
Vuela, vuela palomita
Fly, fly, little dove
Vuela, vuela al palomar
Fly, fly to the dove-cote
No te vayas tan solita palomita
Don't go alone, little dove
Yo te quiero acompañar
I want to accompany you
Muévase, muévase viejita linda
Move, move, beautiful old lady
Y venga, y véngase a retozar
Come, come and frolic
Écheme, écheme una sonrisita
Give me, give me a little smile
No me haga, no me haga desatinar
Don't make me, don't make me go crazy
Qué boni, qué bonita palomita
How nice, how beautiful, little dove
Lástima, lástima que esté flaquita
Too bad, too bad she's skinny
Si se pu, si se pusiera gordita
If she became, if she became a little chubby
Yo le ense, yo le enseñaría a bailar
I would teach her, I would teach her to dance
Vuela, vuela palomita
Fly, fly, little dove
Vuela, vuela al palomar
Fly, fly to the dove-cote
No te vayas tan solita palomita
Don't go alone, little dove
Yo te quiero acompañar
I want to accompany you
Una pa, una paloma al volar
A dove, a flying dove
Su dora, su dorado pico abría
Its golden beak opening
Todos di, todos dicen que me hablaba
Everyone says, everyone says it spoke to me
Pero yo, pero yo no la entendía
But I, but I didn't understand it
Qué boni, qué bonita palomita
How nice, how beautiful, little dove
Lástima, lástima que esté flaquita
Too bad, too bad she's skinny
Si se pu, si se pusiera gordita
If she became, if she became a little chubby
Yo le ense, yo le enseñaría a bailar
I would teach her, I would teach her to dance
Vuela, vuela palomita
Fly, fly, little dove
Vuela, vuela al palomar
Fly, fly to the dove-cote
No te vayas tan solita palomita
Don't go alone, little dove
Yo te quiero acompañar
I want to accompany you
