Below, I translated the lyrics of the song My Favorite Things by Julie Andrews from English to Spanish.
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Gotas de lluvia sobre rosas y bigotes en gatitos
Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens
Brillantes teteras de cobre y cálidos guantes de lana
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
Paquetes de papel marrón atados con cuerdas
These are a few of my favorite things
Estas son algunas de mis cosas favoritas
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Ponis color crema y crujientes strudels de manzana
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Timbres y campanas de trineo y schnitzel con fideos
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
Gansos salvajes que vuelan con la luna en sus alas
These are a few of my favorite things
Estas son algunas de mis cosas favoritas
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Chicas con vestidos blancos y fajas de satén azul
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Copos de nieve que se quedan en mi nariz y pestañas
Silver white winters that melt into springs
Inviernos blanco plateado que se derriten en primaveras
These are a few of my favorite things
Estas son algunas de mis cosas favoritas
When the dog bites, when the bee stings
Cuando el perro muerde, cuando la abeja pica
When I'm feeling sad
Cuando me siento triste
I simply remember my favorite things
Simplemente recuerdo mis cosas favoritas
And then I don't feel so bad
Y entonces no me siento tan mal
