Tengo una muñeca vestida de azul
Con su camisita y su canesú
La saqué a paseo, se me constipó
La tengo en la cama con mucho dolor
Y esta mañanita me dijo el doctor
Que le dé el jarabe con un tenedor
Dos y dos son cuatro
Cuatro y dos son seis
Seis y dos son ocho
Y ocho diez y seis
Y ocho veinte y cuatro
Y ocho treinta y dos
Ánimas benditas me arrodillo yo.
I have a doll dressed in blue
With her little shirt and her lace shawl.
I took her for a stroll, she caught a cold
I put her to bed, she's in a lot of pain.
This very morning, the doctor told me
To give her some syrup with a fork,
Two and two make four
Four and two make six
Six and two make eight
and eight makes sixteen
And eight makes twenty four
And eight makes thirty two
Blessed souls, I kneel down.
