El Nido - The Nest (Words: Alfredo Espino)
Es porque un pajarito de la montaña ha hecho
It is because a little mountain bird has madeen el hueco de un árbol su nido matinal,
In the hollow of a tree its morning nestque el árbol amanece con música en el pecho,
that the tree wakes up with music inside its chestcomo que si tuviera corazón musical...
as if it had a musical heart…Si el dulce pajarito por entre el hueco asoma,
If the sweet bird goes out a bit (through the hole)para beber rocío, para beber aroma,
To drink dew, to drink scentel árbol de la sierra me dá la sensación
The tree in the sierra gives me this sensationde que se le ha salido, cantando el corazón.
That its singing heart has left it.
