Le voy a decir a Pepa
I'm Going to Tell Flora
Canción infantil
(Spanish)
Children's Song
(English)

Le voy a decir a Pepa,
Le voy a decir a Juan,
Que de trigo se hace harina,
Y de la harina se hace el pan.
Le voy a decir a Pepa,
Le voy a decir a Juan,
Que de trigo se hace harina,
Y de la harina se hace el pan.
Quiero que sepas, Pepa, Pepa,
Quiero que sepas, Juan, Juan, Juan.
Ay yay yay Pepa,
Ay yay yay yay Juan,
Que de trigo se hace harina
Y de la harina se hace el pan.

I'm going to tell Flora*
I'm going to tell Fred
That with wheat we make flour
And with flour we make bread.
I'm going to tell Flora
I'm going to tell Fred
That with wheat we make flour
And with flour we make bread.
I want you to know Flora, Flora
I want you to know Fred, Fred, Fred.
Hey, hey, hey, Flora
Hey, hey, hey, hey, Fred
That with wheat we make flour
And with flour we make bread.

Notes

*The names have been changed so the song could rhyme. Pepa is the diminutive of Josefa, the Spanish feminine form of Joseph and Juan is John.
