Soy la reina de los mares

Soy la reina de los mares
I'm the Queen of the Seas
Canción infantil
Jump Rope Song
(Spanish)
(English)
Soy la reina de los mares
Y tú no lo puedes ser
Tiro mi pañuelo al suelo
Y lo vuelvo a recoger
Pañuelito, pañuelito
Quién te pudiera tener
Guardadito en el bolsillo
Como un pliego de papel.
I'm the queen of the seas
And you can't be.
I throw down my handkerchief
And I pick it up again.
Little hanky, little hanky,
Who could keep you,
Hidden in his pocket
Like a folded sheet of paper.
