Translation of the song lyrics El Bosque De Palo - Jarabe De Palo

El Bosque De Palo (original)

Por un rio de agua clara
Baja Palo Cantamaanas
Va buscando una manzana
«pa» morderla y volverse majara
Y una encuentra y el diente le clava;
Sale «flechao», no sabe adonde nada
Va mas feliz que todas las cosas;
Esta tan «volao», que nada le importa
(Estribillo)
Ya llevamos unas semanas
De primavera, de tardes soleadas
En el bosque de las manzanas
Vive Palo Cantamaanas
El una balsa de agua calmada
Liga una trucha hermosa y plateada
El que la ve y coje su guitarra;
Suelta un soneto, «pa» ver si la engancha
«Ay!, pescadilla de negros ojillos
Ve con „cuidao“, que hoy vengo salido;
Que es primavera y tu estas tan rica;
Coge tus cosas, vamos rio arriba»

(translation)

For a river of clear water
Baja Palo Cantamaanas
He is looking for an apple
"pa" bite her and become crazy
And one finds and her tooth stabs him;
She comes out "flechao", she doesn't know where to swim
She goes happier than all things;
He is so "fly", that nothing matters to him
(Chorus)
We've been a few weeks
Of spring, of sunny afternoons
In the apple forest
Live Palo Cantamaanas
The a raft of calm water
Garter a beautiful silver trout
The one who sees her and takes his guitar from her;
He drops a sonnet, "pa" to see if she hooks her
«Ay!, little black-eyed whiting
Go with „cuidao“, that today I come out;
That it is spring and you are so rich;
Get your things, let's go up the river"
