Lyrics and translation Los Cadetes De Linares - El Palomito

El Palomito

Una palomita blanca
De piquito colorado
Ayer yo la vi llorando
En las cumbres de un guayabo

Curru-cu, curru-cu, le cantaba el palomito
Curru-cu, curru-cu, que volviera a su nidito

Blanca palomita, vuela
Vuela por esa pradera
Aquí, te estaré esperando
Aunque de dolor me muera

Curru-cu, curru-cu, le cantaba el palomito
Curru-cu, curru-cu, que volviera a su nidito

En las cumbres del guayabo
Muy lejos del palomar
Ahí estaba la paloma
Llorando sin descansar

Curru-cu, curru-cu, le cantaba el palomito
Curru-cu, curru-cu, que volviera a su nidito

The Little Dove

A little white dove
With a little red beak
Yesterday I saw her crying
On the branches of a guava tree

Coo-coo, coo-coo, the little dove sang to her
Coo-coo, coo-coo, for her to return to her nest

White little dove, fly
Fly through that meadow
Here, I'll be waiting for you
Even if I die of sorrow

Coo-coo, coo-coo, the little dove sang to her
Coo-coo, coo-coo, for her to return to her nest

On the branches of the guava tree
Far from the dovecote
There was the dove
Crying without rest

Coo-coo, coo-coo, the little dove sang to her
Coo-coo, coo-coo, for her to return to her nest
