Pepito and Airel edited authorship.png

 

Pepito es un perrito

Muy lindo con un gran corazon

Le doy un abrazo

Y un besito de pilon

Veo sus ojositos, color cafecitos 

Sus ladras son distinctas y muy suavesitas

Le compro antojitos, y disfruta sus huesitos  

Me trae mucha alegria 

y con mucha energia, 

Se da una vuelta y el comienza a bailar 

Este perrito, es muy especial

Yo quiero a Pepito, el es un Angelito, a todo dar.

(English Translation)

Pepito is a little, tiny Chihuahua Dog

Very cute and has a very good heart

I look into his eyes, their brown as can be

They surely do shine, like the morning star

He surely is a blessing, bringing joy to my heart

I send him hugs and kisses

His barks are distinctive

This dog is blessed, I buy him little snacks

He sure does love to chew on those tasty bully sticks

He gets all excited, does the Hocky Pocky and turns himself around

He dances like a merry-go-round, that goes round and round

I am so happy to have him around

As tiny as he is, Pepito surely is

The bravest dog in town.

Summary. Pepito is a cute, tiny, little brown Chihuahua dog, who belongs to our friendly neighbor next door. I am very fond of Pepito. Pepito's bark is soft and low. It was Pepito's bark that attracted me to him. Pepito stands up to the loud barking of other dogs, as he challenges them up and down the fence. What a brave little Chihuahua. I started singing to Pepito and so this song was born.

The original version is in Spanish and has been translated into English.

The Way Home.png

Daar is 'n baba -eend

Hy probeer sy huis bereik

Om mamma eend te volg

Om by familie te wees

Maar wankel te stadig

 

Nie geweet hy kan vlieg nie

Hy weet net om te loop

Maak nie saak waarheen hy gaan nie

Hy sit vas in die modder

Hy sit vas in die sneeu

 

Soos dae en dae verbygaan

Hy kom tot die besef

Ek kan in die lug vlieg

Ek kan alles sien

En vind my pad terug huis toe

Summary. A little duckling is born and soon after he feels forgotten. The duckling is overwhelmed with disappointment from his low stature until he learns something extraordinary.
 

Poem is based upon the short story "Kibbee, Part 1"

Accompanying children's song is "Lucky Ducky"
