These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
¿Cómo iba a llegar la paloma gris
How would the gray dove get
Hacia un nuevo nido para vivir?
Towards a new nest to live?
Sin saber volar a lo alto se subió
Without knowing how to fly to the top, he climbed
Cerró sus ojitos y se lanzó
He closed his eyes and launched himself
Ay-ay-ay, mucho tiempo viajó
Ay-ay-ay, long traveled
Ay-ay-ay, ni muy lejos llegó
Ay-ay-ay, he didn't get very far
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay
Vuela, palomita, a tu nuevo hogar
Fly, little dove, to your new home
Se volvió ilegal lejos de su tierra natal
He became illegal far from his homeland
Tuvo que pagar con la soledad
He had to pay with loneliness
Ahora sin su parvada no tenía nada
Now without his flock he had nothing
Pero la paloma creía en sus alas
But the dove believed in its wings
Ay-ay-ay, aunque a veces cayó
Ay-ay-ay, although sometimes it fell
Ay-ay-ay, la fortuna llegó
Ay-ay-ay, fortune arrived
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay
Se aferró la palomita a su nuevo hogar
The little dove clung to its new home
Después de varios años, encontró a su rebaño
After several years, he found his flock
También unas ramitas y un nido se armó
Also some twigs and a nest was put together
Cuando por fin contenta se puso a extrañar
When finally happy she began to miss
Entonces decidió que iba a regresar
Then he decided that he was going to return
Ay-ay-ay, se dispuso a volar
Ay-ay-ay, he prepared to fly
Ay-ay-ay, y en el viaje soñar
Ay-ay-ay, and on the trip dream
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay
Vuela palomita a tu viejo hogar
Fly dove to your old home
Pero al volver se puso a llorar
But when he came back he started crying
Todo había cambiado, ay, palomita
Everything had changed, oh, little dove
La paloma vieja, vieja y desdichada
The old, old, unhappy dove
Poco ya volaba y no tenía nada
Little was flying and I had nothing
Ay-ay-ay, por poco y no voló
Ay-ay-ay, it almost didn't fly
Ay-ay-ay, pero se arrastró
Ay-ay-ay, but it crawled
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay
Yo sé que puedes volar, ay, palomita
I know that you can fly, oh, little dove
Estando en el aire, el hondo respirar
Being in the air, the deep breath
Por fin se daba cuenta
He finally realized
No era de aquí ni era de allá
He wasn't from here nor was he from there
Por eso las aves por su libertad
That's why the birds for their freedom
