La hija de la vecina 1

Lyrics

La ija de la vizina, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
ke se yama Karolina,  
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
En koriendo se kayó, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
la tripa se le unfló, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa

Al shpital se la yevaron, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
operarla operaron  
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
Grande fue el enkanto  
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
un gameyo le kitaron, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa

Translation

The neighbors' daughter, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
called Carolina, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
while running, she fell, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
and her belly swelled up, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa

They took her to the hospital, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
operated on her, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
great was the surprise, 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
when they took out a camel 
o-sa-sa, o-sa-sa
