La gallineta [English translation]
La gallineta [English translation]
The little hen has said "enough,
I will not lay eggs any longer.
To hell with this damned salary
that has enslaved me for so long.
And if I can't resist making eggs,
I will get myself a constipation:
No hot or cold eggs whatsoever
for him who takes advantage of me."
The hen has said no.
Long live the revolution!
"In exchange for some grains of wheat
you have taken away my power to fly,
but, I swear, this won't continue!
I have a whole life before me.
And I won't just await my fate:
once I get rid of my executioner
there will not be any more risk
in hens keeping each other informed."
The hen has said no.
Long live the revolution!
"And the roosters claiming my bed,
I will pick the healthy and brave ones,
for I'm fed up with those impotent ones
that make me spend such boring nights.
Let me put it forever on record
that nothing about me is virgin
and that you are not going to see me
get another constipation there."
The hen has said no.
Long live the revolution!
