Mama Lisas is a wonderful site that has the mp3's so you can hear the song and see the translations.
I just discovered it and I know I'll be doing a lot of listening. Check it out!! Lots of different countries and languages. What treasure!!!
 Naranja dulce
Canción infantil
(Spanish)

Naranja dulce
Limón partido
dame un abrazo
que yo te pido.

Si fueran falsos
mis juramentos,
en un momento
se olvidarán.

Toca la marcha,
mi pecho llora,
adiós señora,
que ya me voy
adiós señora,
que ya me voy.
 
 
Sweet Orange
Children's Song
(English)

Sweet orange,
Sliced lemon too,
Give me the hug
I ask from you.

If my oaths
Were untrue
In just a wink
You'll forget them.

The march is playing
My heart is crying
Farewell my lady
Away I'm going,
Farewell my lady
Away I'm going.
