The Turpial
Orchestra la 33 You can hear it coming from afar
the song of that turpial
who sings and sang like that
decorating the scrub
But a faithful cockroachero
must be jealous
ouch! why do you sing
doesn't sound like
of the turpial that
The turpial died that one,
the thicket was sad
now birds don't sing
for the absence of the turpial
revolution in the mountain
the birds do not give any more,
ouch! why is it when they
they sing they shut up for
hear the turpial
Choir
Oh sing, how beautiful
sing but sing
the turpial (bis)
He died, He died the turpial that,
the thicket was sad
now birds don't sing, birds don't sing
for the absence of the turpial
Choir
Oh sing, how beautiful
sing but sing
the turpial (bis)
