Los 10 perritos
Jorge Ortiz de Pinedo
The 10 little dogs
I had 10 little dogs,
I had 10 little dogs,
One got lost in the snow.
Now there are only 9.
Of the 9 that remained,
Of the 9 that remained,
One ate a biscuit.
Now there are only 8.
Of the 8 that remained,
Of the 8 that remained,
One bit his cheek.
Now there are only 7.
Of the 7 that remained,
Of the 7 that remained,
One burned his feet.
Now there are only 6.
Of the 6 that remained,
Of the 6 that remained,
One jumped and died.
Now there are only 5.
Of the 5 that remained,
Of the 5 that remained,
One fell off a theater.
Now there are only 4.
Of the 4 that remained,
Of the 4 that remained,
One turned upside down.
Now there are only 3.
Of the 3 that remained,
Of the 3 that remained,
One died of cough.
Now there are only 2.
Of the 2 that remained,
Of the 2 that remained,
One died of hunger.
Now there is only 1.
Of the little dog that remained,
Of the little dog that remained,
The toast took him away
and now there is nothing left
