Lyrics and translation Los Hermanos Barron - Balete Tortuga




Balete Tortuga
Turtle Balet
Allá en medio de la selva
In the middle of the jungle
Un baile se realizó
A dance took place
A todos los animales sin distinción se les invito
All the animals without distinction were invited
Un oso era el cantinero
A bear was the bartender
El mesero era un jaguar
The waiter was a jaguar
Una banda de zorrillos vino de lejos a amenizar
A band of skunks came from far away to entertain
Después de la media noche
After midnight
De pronto les dijo el león
Suddenly the lion told them
Cambiemos todos pareja para que empiece la diversión
Let's all change partners to get the fun started
Cambiaron todos pareja
They all changed partners
Aquello fue un reventón
It was a blast
La hormiga y el elefante bailaron y fueron la sensación
The ant and the elephant danced and were the sensation
El chango con la jirafa
The monkey with the giraffe
La cebra con el caimán
The zebra with the caiman
La liebre con el gorila
The hare with the gorilla
La guaya el orangután
The parrot with the orangutan
Estaba ya amaneciendo
It was already dawn
Y no se querían sentar
And they didn't want to sit down
De pronto grito el cotorro
Suddenly the parrot shouted
¡El baile se va a acabar!
The dance is going to end!
¡Por favor que no se acabe!
Please don't let it end!
De afuera se oyó gritar
From outside, they heard shouting
Amigos, soy la tortuga y es que acabo de llegar
Friends, I'm the turtle and I've just arrived
Amigos, soy la tortuga y es que acabo de llegar
Friends, I'm the turtle and I've just arrived
La rana con la tortuga
The frog with the turtle
El baile ya se acabo
The dance was already over
Pero después de 10 horas
But after 10 hours
Todo mundo se canso
Everyone got tired
Ahora si que acabo el baile
Now the dance is really over
La tortuga ya bailo
The turtle has already danced
Sin embargo la tortuga
However, the turtle
De afuera les contesto
Answered them from outside
Si me siguen presionando
If you keep pressuring me
A ese baile no entro yo
I won't go to that dance
