Ma va là! (Chú ếch con)
Zecchino D'oro
Come On! (Little Frog)
The pond frog, in Hanoi, what’s it doing?
After taking a bath, it heads to school
Goes to learn how to chirp
And now it goes chirp chirp instead of ribbit ribbit
Chirp chirp ribbit ribbit
Ribbit ribbit chirp chirp
Chirp chirp ribbit ribbit
Ribbit ribbit chirp chirp
And among those who go
Chirp chirp ribbit ribbit
There’s a rooster that goes meow
Come on, come on
Come on, what kind of story is this?
Come on, come on
But really, it’s the truth
The little nightingale, in Hanoi, what’s it doing?
It takes off from the nest and heads to school
Has to take the test, studies to play dead
And instead of chirping on the branch, it goes woof woof
Chirp chirp woof woof
Woof woof chirp chirp
Chirp chirp woof woof
Woof woof chirp chirp
And among those who go
Chirp chirp woof woof
There’s a rooster that goes meow
Come on, come on
Come on, what kind of story is this?
Come on, come on
But really, it’s the truth
We study English
Arabic and French
But animalese
Is studied there
Look at the little frog with two big round eyes
Studying alone by the bomb crater near the garden
All the little catfish and all the little tilapia
Swim around with their fins, keeping time to the frog’s loud drum
Chirp chirp woof woof
Ribbit ribbit chirp chirp
Chirp chirp woof woof
Ribbit ribbit chirp chirp
And among those who go
Chirp chirp woof woof
There’s a rooster that goes meow
Look at the little frog, the best little one in the house
Studying hard, singing with the nightingale
Chirp chirp chirp chirp, hop hop hop
All the little sparrows and all the little tilapia are happy and joyful
Listening to the singing, loving it so much, laughing hee hee hee, ha ha
Come on, come on
Come on, what kind of story is this?
Come on, come on
But really, it’s the truth
But really, it’s the truth!
