SONG FROM BORINQUEN

lyrics

Por las siestas viene el piragüero
con su carro lleno de luz y color
y los niños salen de la escuela
y le forman rueda de risa y canción
Las botellas son de tamarindo
de menta de fresa de coco y limón
y en el hielo corta el piragüero
gotitas de cielo de luz y sabor
Piragüero, piragüero
piragüero, piragüero, piragüero
flor del agua piragua de hielo
de azúcar y cielo de luna y limón
piragüero dame una piragua
de azúcar y cielo para mi canción
Piragué piragué
Piragué piragué piragué…
Flor del agua y del limón
Piragüero es tu canción…

At naptime comes the piraguero
with his cart full of light and color
and the children get out of school
and make a circle of laughter and song around him
The bottles are of tamarind
of mint and strawberry, of coconut and lemon
and from the ice the piraguero cuts
little drops of the sky, light and flavor
Piraguero, piraguero
piraguero, piraguero, piraguero
flower of water, snow-cone of ice
of sugar, sky, moon and lemon
piraguero, give me a snow-cone
of sugar and sky for my song
Piraguero, piraguero
piraguero, piraguero, piraguero
Flower of water and lemon,
piraguero, this is your song
