Lyrics - Spanish
(Folk song from Cuba)
Barquito de papel
mi amigo fiel
Llévame a navegar
por el ancho mar.
Yo quiero conocer
a niños de aquí y de allá
y a todos llevar
mi flor de amistad.
¡Abajo la guerra,
arriba la paz!
Los niños queremos
reir y cantar.
English Translation - Paper boat
Paper boat
my faithful friend
take me sailing
across the wide sea.
I want to meet
children from here and there
and everyone take
my friendship flower
Down with the war
up with peace!
We children want
to laugh and sing
