Juan(original) |
| Sembrando la tierra, Juan |
| Se puso á considerar: |
| ¿Por qué la tierra será |
| Del que no sabe sembrar? |
| Le pido perdón al árbol |
| Cuando lo voy á tronchar |
| Y el árbol me dijo un día |
| ¡Yo también me llamo Juan! |
| Tuve en mis ramas un nido |
| Yo sé que se salvarán |
| Los pájaros siempre vuelan |
| Yo, nunca aprendí á volar |
| Triste es la vida del campo |
| Arar, sembrar, y esperar |
| El verano, y el otoño |
| Y el invierno… todo igual |
| Quizá pensando, pensando |
| Un día aprenda á volar. |

| (translation) |
| Sowing the land, Juan |
| He began to consider: |
| Why will the earth be |
| Of which he does not know how to sow? |
| I apologize to the tree |
| When I'm going to cut it |
| And the tree told me one day |
| My name is Juan too! |
| I had a nest in my branches |
| I know they will be saved |
| birds always fly |
| I never learned to fly |
| Sad is country life |
| Plow, sow, and wait |
| The summer, and the autumn |
| And the winter… all the same |
| Maybe thinking, thinking |
| One day learn to fly. |
