Translation

En una jaula de oro, pendiente de un balcón

In a golden cage, hanging from a balcony

Se hallaba una calandria, cantando su dolor

There was a lark, singing its sorrow

Hasta que un gorrioncillo a su jaula llego,

Until a little sparrow came to its cage

Si usted puede sacarme, con usted yo me voy

If you can free me, I'll go with you


El pobre gorrioncillo de ella se enamoro

The poor little sparrow fell in love with her

Y el pobre como pudo, los alambres rompió

And the poor one, however he could, broke the wires

La malvada calandria, después que la saco

The wicked lark, after he freed her

Tan luego se vio libre, voló, voló, y voló

As soon as she was free, she flew, flew, and flew


El pobre gorrioncillo todavía la siguió

The poor little sparrow still followed her

A ver si le cumplía, lo que le prometió

To see if she would fulfill what she promised

La malvada calandria esto le contesto

The wicked lark replied to him

Yo a usted ni lo conozco, ni presa he sido yo

I don't know you, and I haven't been caught


El pobre gorrioncillo de ahí se regreso

The poor little sparrow returned from there

Se paro en un manzano, lloro, lloro, y lloro

He stood on an apple tree, cried, cried, and cried

Ahora en esa jaula, pendiente del balcón

Now in that cage, hanging from the balcony

Se encuentra el gorrioncillo,… cantando su dolor

The little sparrow is, singing its sorrow
