El Pájaro Carpintero

The Woodpecker
What is that little bird that sings in the morning?
What is that little bird that sings at dawn?
Listen, my friends, it brings so much joy to my soul
Listen to me, darn it, it gives me so much pleasure!
But let it sing!
Let it bring joy!
Let it disturb
The silence in the mountain!
Pay attention to the little bird how it speaks
Pay attention to the little bird how it sings
It seems like it wants to die
When its shadow scares it away!
The woodpecker
A little sad bird!
That one has some mystery
When it breaks wood with its beak!
