Children's Song: Los Pollitos Dicen

I've been looking for songs to sing with the children while they wait on line. A big Thank You to Deanna Vaughn and her sister for providing the following song, and to Joe Morales for the transcription and translation.

Los Pollitos Dicen

Los pollitos dicen pío, pío, pío
cuando tienen hambre, cuando tienen frío.
La gallina busca el maíz y el trigo
Les da la comida y les presta abrigo.
Bajo sus dos alas, acurrucaditos,
duérmen los pollitos.
hasta el otro dia
(Final time, add the following.)
Quando se levantan dicen mamacita
tengo much hambre dame lombricitas!

The little chicks say peep, peep, peep
when they are hungry, when they are too cold to sleep.
The mother hen looks for corn and wheat
she gives them food to eat.
Safe under mama's wings, huddling up,
Sleep the little chicks until the next day.
(Final time, add the following.)
When they rise again they cry Mommy
we are very hungry, give us worms!
