NURSERY RHYME BY D.P

The Barquito

Where are you bound, little sailor so fine?
Wherever the wind will car-ry.
And when do you leave, O mariner mine?
Tonight, when the tide is high.
And what if the Barbary pirates are nigh?
Why, I’ll blast ‘em to Tipperar-ree
Do you think you’ll return by suppertime?
Perhaps, if there’s apple pie.
--D.P. 2008


El Barquito

¿Cuál es tu destino, buen marinerito?
Donde el viento me lleve
¿Y cuándo te vas, marinerito mío?
Al subir la marea
¿Y si los piratas de Barbary se acercan?
Haré que desaparezcan
¿Estarás de regreso a almorzar?
Quizás, si hay dulce de manjar
( Traducción por House of Writers / Casa de Escritores by Maria Victoria)
