Текст песни: The Donkey Serenade + перевод

There’s a song in the air

But the fair senorita doesn’t seem to care

For the song in the air.

Oh, I’ll sing to the mule

If you’re sure she won’t think that I am just a fool

Serenading a mule.

Amigo mio, does she not have a dainty bray?

(BOY:) Que, esta?

(JONES:) She listens carefully to each little tune you play.

(BOY:) Oh, la bella senorita!

(JONES:) Si, si, mi muchachito,

She’d love to sing it too if only she knew the way.

But try as she may, in her voice there’s a flaw

And all that the lady can say

Is hee-haw-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w

Senorita, donkey’s feet are

Not so fleet as a mosquito

But so sweet like my chiquita

You’re the one for me!

There’s a light in her eye

Though she may try to hide it, she cannot deny

There’s a light in her eye.

Oh, the charm of her smile

So beguiled Don Diego that he rode a mile

For the charm of her smile.

Amigo mio, is she listening to my song?

(BOY:) Que, esta?

(JONES:) No, no, mi muchachito, how can you be so wrong?

(BOY:) Si, la bella senorita!

(JONES:) Si, si, la senorita,

She’d love to sing it too if only she knew the way.

Her face is a dream, like an angel I saw,

And all that my darling can scream

Is hee-haw-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w

Senorita, donkey’s feet are

Not so fleet as a mosquito

But so sweet like my chiquita

You’re the one for me!

Ole!
