Lyrics - Spanish
(Mexican folk song)
A la rorro niño, a lo rorro ya
Duérmete mi niño, duérmete mi amor.
Este niño lindo que nació de día
Quiere que lo lleve a ver a su tía
Este niño lindo que nació de noche
Quiere que lo lleve a pasear en coche
Este niño lindo, se quiere dormir,
Y el pícaro sueño no quiere venir.
English Translation – Rorro* baby
A la rorro baby, a la rorro now,
Go to sleep my baby, go to sleep my love.
This beautiful baby who was born by day
Wants to be taken to see his aunt
This beautiful baby who was born at night
Wants to be taken for a drive
This beautiful baby wants to sleep,
And the naughty dream does not want to come.
*word used to lull babies to sleep
