Ahora voy a hablarles de un escorpión
Now I am going to tell you about a scorpion
Este escorpión quería pasar el río
This scorpion wanted to cross the river
Y le pidió a la rana que lo llevara
And he asked the frog to take him
'No' dijo la rana
'No' said the frog
'Si te dejo que te subas a mi espalda
'If I let you get on my back
Puedes picarme
You can sting me
Y la picadura de un escorpión es mortal'
And a scorpion sting is deadly
'Vaya' replicó le escorpión
'Wow,' replied the scorpion
'¿Dónde está la lógica de tus palabras?
'Where is the logic of your words?
Los escorpiones siempre tratan de ser lógicos
Scorpios always try to be logical
Si yo te pico, tú mueres y yo me ahogaré'
If I sting you, you die and I will drown'
Al oír estas palabras la rana quedó convencida
Upon hearing these words the frog was convinced
Y permitió que el escorpión se subiera encima de ella
And she allowed the scorpion to climb on top of her
Pero cuando estaban en medio del río
But when they were in the middle of the river
Sintió un dolor terrible
She felt terrible pain
Y se dio cuenta
And she realized
Pese a todo, el escorpión la había picado
Despite everything, the scorpion had stung her
'Lógica' gritó la rana moribunda cuando comenzó a hundirse
'Logic' cried the dying frog as he began to sink
Arrastrando al escorpión bajo las aguas
Dragging the scorpion under the waters
'No hay lógica en estos
'There is no logic in these
'Lo sé' respondió el escorpión
'I know' replied the scorpion
'Pero no he podido evitarlo
'But I couldn't help it
Es mi carácter'
It's my character'
Bebamos por el carácter
Let's drink to character
