Di ¿por qué?, dime abuelita
Di ¿por qué, eres viejita?
Di ¿por qué, sobre las camas
Ya no te gusta brincar?
Tell me why, tell me grandma
Tell me why, why are you old?
Tell me, why on beds
You don’t like to jump anymore?
Di ¿por qué, usas los lentes?
Di ¿por qué, no tienes dientes?
Di ¿por qué, son tus cabellos
Como la espuma del mar?
Tell me, why do you use glasses?
Tell me, why don’t you have teeth?
Tell me, why is your hair
Like the foam of the sea?

(Lara-lara, lara-lara, lara-lara)
Siempre está
Junto al calor, igual que tú
Fluffy
(Lara-lara, lara-lara, lara-lara)
It’s always
With the heat, same as you
Di ¿por qué?, frente al ropero
Donde hay tantos retratos
Di ¿por qué, lloras a ratos?
Dime abuelita, ¿por qué?
Tell me why, in front of the wardrobe
Where there are so many portraits
Tell me, why do you cry at times?
Tell me grandma, why?
Di ¿por qué?, frente al ropero
Donde hay tantos retratos
Di ¿por qué, lloras a ratos?
Dime abuelita, ¿por qué?
Tell me why, in front of the wardrobe
Where there are so many portraits
Tell me, why do you cry at times?
Tell me grandma, why?
