lyrics

Pajarito

Written by: Thomas Sors

Pajarito
(Little Bird -Translation in brackets)

Pajarito, pajarito
(Little bird, little bird)
Como cantas tu cancion?
(How do you sing your song?)
Sin orgullo o envidia
(Without pride or envy)
Bien admiro tu devocion.
(I well admire your devotion)

Pajarito, pajarito
(Little bird, little bird)
Como va tu historia?
(How does your story go?)
Cantamela por ahora
(Sing it to me for now)
Con tu voz de la gloria.
(With your glorious voice.)

Pajarito Colorado
(Painted little bird)
Plumas llenas de color
(Feathers full of colour)
Pajarito rodeado
(Little bird surrounded)
Con tus llantos de dolor.
(By your howls (wails) of pain.)



This bitter-sweet ballad is a new song written in the style of the old Ladino (Judeo-Spanish) folk songs that we have been soaking up for the last few years.
