Ay, qué bonito es volar

Oh, how beautiful it is to fly

A las 2 de la mañana

At 2 in the morning

A las 2 de la mañana

At 2 in the morning

Ay, qué bonito es volar, ay, mamá

Oh, how beautiful it is to fly, oh, mama


Volar y dejarse caer

Flying and letting oneself fall

En los brazos de una dama

In the arms of a lady

Ay, qué bonito es volar

Oh, how beautiful it is to fly

A las 2 de la mañana, ay, mamá

At 2 in the morning, oh, mama


Me agarra la bruja

The witch grabs me

Me lleva a su casa

Takes me to her house

Me vuelve maceta

Turns me into a pot

Y una calabaza

And a pumpkin


Me agarra la bruja

The witch grabs me

Me lleva al cerrito

Takes me to the little hill

Me vuelve maceta

Turns me into a pot

Y un calabacito

And a little squash


Ay, dígame, dígame, dígame usted

Oh, tell me, tell me, tell me, you

¿Cuántas criaturitas se ha chupado usted?

How many little creatures have you sucked?

Ninguna, ninguna, ninguna, no sé

None, none, none, I don't know

Ando en pretensiones de chuparme a usted

I am intending to suck you


Ay, me espantó una mujer

Oh, a woman scared me

En el aire iba volando

In the air, she was flying

En el aire iba volando

In the air, she was flying

Ay, me espantó una mujer, ay, mamá

Oh, a woman scared me, oh, mama


Entonces le pregunté

So I asked her

Que a quién andaba buscando

Whom she was looking for

Me dijo: "¿quién es usted?"

She said, "Who are you?"

Soy cantador de huapango, ay, mamá

I am a singer of huapango, oh, mama


Escóndete, chepa

Hide yourself, Chepa

Escóndete, juana

Hide yourself, Juana

Que ahí anda la bruja

Because the witch is around

Debajo en la cama

Underneath the bed

Escóndete, chepa

Hide yourself, Chepa

Escóndete, jova

Hide yourself, Jova

Que allá anda la bruja

Because there goes the witch

Volando en su escoba

Flying on her broomstick


Ay, dígame, dígame, dígame usted

Oh, tell me, tell me, tell me, you

¿Cuántas criaturitas se ha chupado usted?

How many little creatures have you sucked?

Ninguna, ninguna, ninguna, no sé

None, none, none, I don't know

Ando en pretensiones de chuparme a usted

I am intending to suck you
