Notes

Monique sent another version:

El pececito de color - The Little Goldfish

Cierto día, vi en el mar - One day, I saw in the sea
un pececito de color -a little goldfish
que iré a visitar, -that I will visit
Traté de atraparlo dentro del mar, I tried to catch it within the sea
pero el pececito se me escapó, but the little fish swam away (lit. escaped from me)
Adiós pececito, cuando sepa nadar (goodbye little fish, when I (can) know how to swim
yo te vendré a visitar, I'll go visit you.
