Pajarito de mañana
Little bird of the morning
Sentadito en mi ventana
Sitting by my window
Canta canta
Sing, sing
Desde tierras muy lejanas
From lands so far away
Con su música algo extraña
With its music so strange
Mata mata
Kill, kill
Ay pajarito dime tu secreto
Oh little bird, tell me your secret
Yo quiero volar y no encuentro boleto
I want to fly but can't find a ticket
Ay pajarito llévame contigo
Oh little bird, take me with you
Y enséñame a volar
And teach me to fly
Pajarito en primavera
Little bird in springtime
Partiré con luna nueva
I will depart with the new moon
Sin mapas ni fronteras
Without maps or borders
Con la penas enterradas
With my sorrows buried
Viviré de mi guitarra
I will live by my guitar
No importara nada
Nothing will matter
Ay pajarito dime que tú qué harías
Oh little bird, tell me what you would do
Yo quiero cantar y no hallo melodías
I want to sing and can't find melodies
Ay pajarito llévame contigo
Oh little bird, take me with you
Y enséñame a volar
And teach me to fly
Un respiro una señal
A breath, a sign
Dime que aún me queda tiempo
Tell me that I still have time
Para soñar
To dream
Y que el día llegara
And that the day will come
Que me atreva a despegar
That I'll dare to take flight
Pajarito no te vayas
Little bird, don't go away
Quédate en mi ventana
Stay at my window
Y canta canta
And sing, sing
Arrúllame y dame vida
Lull me and give me life
Recuérdame que las heridas
Remind me that the wounds
Sanan sanan
Sanan sanan
Ay pajarito cuéntame a quien amas
Oh little bird, tell me who you love
Yo la única vez que ame perdí mis alas
The only time I loved, I lost my wings
Ay pajarito llévame contigo
Oh little bird, take me with you
Y enséñame a volar
And teach me to fly
Sácame de este lugar
Take me out of this place
Sácame de este lugar
Take me out of this place
