A song to help children hear Spanish and listen to a tale

A song to help children listen to directions and a bit of Spanish as they listen to the tale of the sailor "Capitán"

The sailor stood upon the deck
where do I go from here
He said the word español
He saw la ballena swimming near
He saw la ballena swimming near


Ballena said one direction
One direction you will go
Listen well and you will hear
Which direction you will know
Which direction you will know

The sailor listened to the west
Me llamo oeste, no no no
The sailor listened to the south
Me llamo sud, no no no
The sailor listened to the east
Me llamo este, no no no
No no no
Me llamo este, no no no
No no no

The sailor listened to the north
Me llamo norte sí, sí, sí
A la isla sígueme
A la isla sígueme
To the island follow me
To the island follow me


Sígueme a la isla
To the island follow me
The color of the isla is verde
Green it is as you will see
Green it is as you will see


And so he followed senor norte
The sailor said put up the sail
Next stop is the isla verde
So listen to more of this tale
So listen to more of this tale
