La Chica De Mi Escuela
Manny Manuel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Con sus cuadernos bajo el brazo con su
Pelo suelto y sus ojos lindos
La veo todas las mañanas
Recorriendo siempre el mismo camino
Llevando mi mochila llevo yo
Igual que ella el mismo destino
Porque soy muy tímido
Con su carita tan bonita son sus ojitos dos estrellas
Y su faldita de colores juega con el viento y la hace ver más bella
Con su carita tan bonita son sus ojitos dos estrellas
Y su faldita de colores juega con el viento y la hace ver más bella
La chica de mi escuela
Me tiene enamorado
De sus carita tierna
Estoy ilusionado
La chica de mi escuela
Escuela y bonita quisiera
Yo decirle que es mi preferida
Fiera callada
Sigues siendo tú mi amor
Los chicos que están en mi curso
Están enamorados pendientes de ella
Quisiera yo poder tenerla pero
Las palabras cortas se me quedan
Llevando mi mochila llevo yo
Igual que ella el mismo destino
Quisiera yo decirle algo pero
No me atrevo porque soy muy tímido
Con su carita tan bonita son sus ojitos dos estrellas
Y su faldita de colores juega con el viento y la hace ver más bella
Con su carita tan bonita son sus ojitos dos estrellas
Y su faldita de colores juega con el viento y la hace ver más bella
La chica de mi escuela
Me tiene enamorado
De sus carita tierna
Estoy ilusionado
La chica de mi escuela
Escuela y bonita quisiera
Yo decirle que es mi preferida
Y vuelvo amansando fieras
Amansando fieras
Sabroso
La chica de mi escuela
Me tiene enamorado
De sus carita tierna
Estoy ilusionado
La chica de mi escuela
Escuela y bonita quisiera
Yo decirle que es mi preferida
Y a tu gusto mami
Sabroso

He admires her every morning as she walks to school with her hair open, beautiful eyes, and colorful skirt that plays with the wind. He carries his backpack just like her, and even though they share the same destination, he cannot find the courage to talk to her. The boy describes her as a beautiful girl with two starry eyes and a beautiful face that makes her look even more beautiful when her colorful skirt sways in the wind.

Según este informe aparece como autor de la canción el señor Omar Alfanno quien es panameño. No obstante vi una entrevista en el show de Silvio donde le hace una entrevista a José Peguero, dominicano y a su esposa y dice el que es el autor. Aquí les dejo el enlace https://youtu.be/vsRlWKUhdyI
