Itzi, bitzi araña
Itzi, bitzi araña
Itsy Bitsy Spider
Canción infantil
Children's Song
(Spanish)
(English)
Itzi, bitzi araña,
tejió su telaraña.
Vino la lluvia,
y se la llevó.
Salió el sol,
se secó la lluvia.
Y Itzi, bitzi araña,
otra vez subió.
The itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the waterspout
Down came the rain
And washed the spider out
Out came the sun
And dried up all the rain
And the itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the spout again.

La pequeñita araña
tejió su telaraña
vino la lluvia
y se la llevó
Y salió el sol
y se secó la lluvia
y la pequeñita araña
subió, subió, subió.
It's almost the same as the one posted except it says 'la pequeñita' (the little bitty) instead of 'itzi bitzy' so the whole song is in Spanish. I'll translate it as a reference, but I believe the English version posted is great.
The little bitty spider
Wove its spider web,
The rain came
And took it away.
And the sun came out
And dried the rain,
And the little bitty spider
Went up, up, up.
