El Sapo Pepe Y La Rana Juana
CantaJuego Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Se conocieron hace una semana
Van al mercado, compran manzanas
Duermen la siesta en una ventana
El sapo Pepe y la rana Juana
Se conocieron hace dos semanas
Él toca el piano, ella el violín
El sapo Pepe y la rana Juana
Se conocieron hace tres semanas
Bailan la conga con mucho estilo
Y son amigos de un cocodrilo
Pepe y Juana bajo un ciprés
Viven juntitos desde hace un mes
Cantan de noche pero no los ves
Y en los charquitos meten los pies
Pepe y Juan desde hace un mes
Cantan a dúo bajo su ciprés
Si alguna noche bajo tu ventana
Oyes canciones, coplas o nanas
No te sorprendas, son Pepe y Juana
Con un gran coro de sapos y ranas
No te sorprendas, son Pepe y Juana
Con un gran coro de sapos y ranas
The lyrics in the song "El Sapo Pepe Y La Rana Juana" by CantaJuego tells the story of a love connection between two amphibians, Pepe the toad and Juana the frog. The lyrics start with "El sapo Pepe y la rana Juana, se conocieron hace una semana" (Pepe the toad and Juana the frog, met a week ago) and the two quickly form a close bond, going to the market together, sleeping in different places but always finding a way back to each other. The chorus describes how they live together under a cypress tree, where they sing duets every night and dip their feet in the nearby ponds. The song ends with a warning that if you hear music at night, that it's just Pepe and Juana with their choir of frog and toad friends.
The song's lyrics serve as a lighthearted representation of the friendship between animals in nature. The uninitiated may see a toad and frog and assume they are vastly different creatures, but the lyrics show how these animals can share an uncommon friendship, spending time together and enjoying each other's company. These lyrics are easily relatable for children, who might have found unlikely friendship in places they never anticipated.
