La Vaca Estudiosa (original)La Vaca Estudiosa (translation)
Había una vez una vaca once upon a time there was a cow
En la quebrada de Humahuaca In the Humahuaca ravine
Como era muy vieja, muy vieja As she was very old, very old
Estaba sorda de una oreja she was deaf in one ear
Y a pesar de que ya era abuela And even though she was already a grandmother
Un día quiso ir a la escuela One day she wanted to go to school
Se puso unos zapatos rojos She put on some red shoes
Guantes de tul y un par de anteojos Tulle Gloves and a Pair of Glasses
La vio la maestra asustada She saw the scared teacher
Y dijo: «Estás equivocada» And she said, "You're wrong"
Y la vaca le respondió: And the cow answered him:
«¿Por qué no puedo estudiar yo?» "Why can't I study?"
La vaca vestida de blanco The cow dressed in white
Se acomodó en el primer banco She settled in the first pew
Los chicos tirábamos tiza The boys used to throw chalk
Y nos moríamos de risa And we were dying of laughter
La gente se fue muy curiosa People left very curious
A ver a la vaca estudiosa To see the studious cow
La gente llegaba en camiones People came in trucks
En bicicletas y en aviones On bikes and on planes
Y como el bochinche aumentaba And as the hubbub increased
En la escuela nadie estudiaba At school no one studied
La vaca de pie en un rincón The cow standing in a corner
Rumiaba sola la lección She ruminated the lesson alone
Un día toditos los chicos One day all the boys
Nos convertimos en borricos we become donkeys
Y en ese lugar de Humahuaca And in that place of Humahuaca
La única sabia fue la vaca The only wise one was the cow
Y en ese lugar de Humahuaca And in that place of Humahuaca
La única sabia fue la vaca…The only wise one was the cow...
