Sol, Solecito
Four-year-old Liseth of Bogota, Colombia, loves learning songs and rhymes. In this video, she recites a few rhymes popular in Latin America, similar to “Hey, Diddle, Diddle” in English. The translations of her rhymes are below. Read more about Liseth.
| Arroz con Leche (Rice with Milk)* Rice with milk I want to get married To a senorita From the capital
Who knows how to sew With this one, yes I like milk |
Sol Solecito (Sun, Little Sun)*
Sun, little sun Moon, little moon Snail, snail |
| *In Spanish, these verses rhyme and, like “Hey Diddle, Diddle”, they make little sense. The rhyming is lost in the translation. | |
