Ratoncitos Paseadores
Francisco Gabilondo Soler (Cri Cri)
Walking Mice
Three mice went out
for a walk in the garden;
Tribilín, Popochón
and their cousin Crispitín.
They walked arm in arm
singing a song;
Tribilín, Crispitín
and little Popochón.
Something behind the grass went MEOW...
and the three stopped singing
'It must be a cat that I heard...
it's very late, let's go from here!'
It's better to go home
to study the lesson well;
Tribilín, Crispitín
and little Popochón.
Taking a break
three rascals usually go
to wander, to run
here and there.
A trio of mice
each more mischievous;
Tribilín, Crispitín
and their relative Popochón.
But if in the distance a MEOW is heard...
they immediately stop walking...
'-That smells like a hunting cat...
returning home is better!'
The peace that books bring
is a more pleasant feeling
than going out to seek
unreasonable adventures.
