Текст и перевод песни Carmen París - Chavalica

Chavalica

Cuando yo era chavalica
Me gustaba ir con pantalones
Trepar como las ardillas
Y en mil aventuras embarcar
Y ganarles a los chicos
Que se hacían los chulicos
Y dibujar con silbidos
Melodías en el aire al pasar
Qué tiempos aquellos
En los que yo degustaba
Colgada en las ramas
Los higos de la ribera
Los higos, los higos
De la ribera del Ebro
Sabían, sabían
A néctares y ambrosía
Cuando yo era chavalica
Yo quería ir a las misiones
Y alegrar los corazones
Con mis melodías al pasar
Y me llevé coscorrones
Y aprendí muchas lecciones
Pero siendo mayorcita
De las ramas me cuesta bajar
Qué tiempos aquellos...
Cuando yo era chavalica
Tuve gran curiosidad
Y me lleve coscorrones
Por quererla alimentar

Little Girl

When I was a little girl
I liked to wear trousers
Climb like squirrels
And I embarked on a thousand adventures
And I beat the boys
Who were posing as tough guys
And I could draw melodies in the air with whistles as I walked
Melodies in the air as I walked
Oh, those were the days
When I would savor
Hanging from the branches
The figs from the riverbank
The figs, the figs
From the banks of the Ebro
They tasted, they tasted
Like nectars and ambrosia
When I was a little girl
I wanted to go on missions
And gladden hearts
With my melodies as I walked
And I got beatings
And I learned many lessons
But now that I'm older
I have a hard time getting down from the branches
Oh, those were the days...
When I was a little girl
I had great curiosity
And I got beatings
For wanting to feed her
