El sapo chiminique

Lyrics - Spanish

(Folk song from Honduras)

1. El sapo es un animal
Que no tiene buen talante,
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,
¡Que no tiene buen talante, eh!
¡Pero en su conversación
Puede ser un comandante,
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,
¡Puede ser un comandante, eh!

2. Cuando está en sociedad siempre su presencia grata
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,  eh!
Siempre su presencia grata –
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,  eh!
Haciendo genuflexiones y hablando pura lata
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique
¡Y hablando pura lata, eh!

3. En el amor es experto, y en eso tiene secreto
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,  eh!
Y en eso tiene secreto
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique, eh!
Enemigo del travajo, muy bailador y discreto
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,
¡Muy bailador y discreto, eh!

El sapo es un animal, chimi-chimi-chiminique (repeat)

English Translation

The toad is an animal
Who does not have a good mood,
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,
That does not have a good mood, eh!
But in their conversation
It can be a commander,
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,
It can be a commander, huh!

2. When he is in society always his pleasant presence
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique, eh!
Always your pleasant presence –
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique, eh!
Genuflecting and talkin ‘can
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique
And speaking of a can, huh!

3. In love he is an expert, and in that he has a secret
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique, eh!
And in that he has a secret
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique, eh!
Enemy of work, very dancing and discreet
Chimi-chiminique, Chimi-chiminique,
Very danceable and discreet, eh!
