Lyrics of A Tan Avanzada Edad - Victor Heredia

A Tan Avanzada Edad (original)

A la escuela, a tus deberes y al sol,
El patio y el resplandor de tu guardapolvo blanco
Que es donde debes estar.
Bajo la mirada grave de tu celador
Mira que se te hace tarde, ya ha salido el sol.
Yo quisiera que te quedes siempre, florcita del mar,
Que me has hecho amar, pequea, mocosa,
A tan avanzada edad.
A la escuela, que el da se ha puesto en pie.
Te prepar caf;
vamos, lvate la cara,
Deja ya tu cama en paz.
Pero no te pongas triste, no hay porqu llorar.
Mira que se muere un ciervo si te pones mal.
Yo quisiera que te quedes siempre, florcita del mar,
Que me has hecho amar, pequea, mocosa,
A tan avanzada edad.
A la escuela que el mundo ya despert
Su almohada dej el gorrin, y en el nido del hornero
Se trabaja son cesar.
їQuin me pintar la vida, si no quieres t?
Hay que pintar todo el cielo de color azul.
Ahora pronto a tus labores, florcita del mar.
Que me has hecho amar, pequea, mocosa,
A tan avanzada edad.

(translation)

To school, to your homework and to the sun,
The patio and the glow of your white overalls
Which is where you should be.
Under the serious gaze of your warden
Look, it's getting late, the sun has already risen.
I would like you to always stay, little flower of the sea,
That you have made me love, little brat,
At such an advanced age.
To the school, that the day has stood up.
I made you coffee;
come on, wash your face,
Leave your bed alone.
But don't be sad, there's no reason to cry.
Look, a deer dies if you get sick.
I would like you to always stay, little flower of the sea,
That you have made me love, little brat,
At such an advanced age.
To the school that the world has already woken up
Her pillow of hers left the sparrow, and in the nest of the baker
It works without stopping.
Who will paint my life, if you don't want to?
You have to paint the entire sky blue.
Now ready for your work, little flower of the sea.
That you have made me love, little brat,
At such an advanced age.
