Lyrics
The captain set the sail down
To isla verde?s shore
he was on this island
ready to explore
Muestrame senor mapa
Show me show me how
Donde esta el tresor
Where is the treasure now?
Where is the treasure now?
He said the word espanol
The parrot did appear
Hola amigo hello my friend
Estoy aqui I?m here Estoy aqui I?m here
Estoy aqui I am here
Counting you will learn
Repite por favor
Repeat when it?s your turn
Uno dos tres cuatro cinco seis
Siete ocho nueve
Diez once doce trece catorce
Quince diez y seis
Diez y siete diez y ocho
Diez y nueve
Veinte veinte veinte
You have number twenty
Veinte y uno veinte y dos
Veinte y tres veinte y cuatro
Veinticinco veintiseis veinte y siete
Veinte ocho veinte nueve finally numero treinta
Treinta treinta treinta
Finally number thirty
A little treasure box appeared
And then it opened wide
A little tiny magic shell is what he found inside.
Hola me llamo la concha
Como estas tu
Yo tengo un mapa
And this I give to you.
The story does not end here
Listen listen well
The tale is to be continued
There?s more of this to tell
