Había una vez
Había una vez
Once Upon a Time
Canción infantil
Children's Song
(Spanish)
(English)
Había una vez un barquito chiquitico
Había una vez un barquito chiquitico
Había una vez un barquito chiquitico
Que no podía
Que no podía
Que no podía navegar.
Pasaron una, dos, tres, cuatro,
Cinco, seis, siete semanas
Pasaron una, dos, tres, cuatro,
Cinco, seis, siete semanas
Pasaron una, dos, tres, cuatro,
Cinco, seis, siete semanas
Y el barquito
Que no podía
Que no podía
Que no podía navegar.
Y si esta historia no te parece larga
Y si esta historia no te parece larga
Y si esta historia no te parece larga
La volveremos
La volveremos
La volveremos a empezar.
Once upon a time there was a tiny boat
Once upon a time there was a tiny boat
Once upon a time there was a tiny boat
That could not
That could not
That could not sail.
One, two, three, four,
Five, six, seven weeks passed by,
One, two, three, four,
Five, six, seven weeks passed by,
One, two, three, four,
Five, six, seven weeks passed by,
And the little boat
That could not
That could not
That could not sail.
And if this story does not seem long
And if this story does not seem long
And if this story does not seem long
We'll start all over
We'll start all over
We'll start all over again.
