The Flea and the Nit want to get marry because they don't have flour,
they cannot make dough.

Then the Ant
coming out of its hole shouts:
- Carry on with the wedding,
as I will bring the bread!
-
Oh, we are very well now!
We have flour
but we lack chickpeas,
where shall weget them from?
Then
the Grasshopper
shouts from its field:
- Carry on with the wedding,
as I shall bring whole sack of them!
-
Oh, we are very well now!
We have chickpeas,
but we lack meat,
Where shall we get it from?
Then
the Wolf
shouts from its cave:
- Carry on with the wedding,
as I will bring a lamb!
-
Oh we are very well now!
We have got meat,
but we lack wine,
Where shall we get it from?
Then
the Mosquito
shouts from a jar of wine:
- Carry on with the wedding
as I will bring de wine!
-
Oh, we are very well now!
We have wine,
but we lack the bed
Where shall we get it from?
Then
the Fox
shouts from its bed:
- Carry on with the wedding
as I will provide one!
Oh,
we are very well now!
We have got a bed,
but we lack the sheets
Where shall we get them from?
Then
the Spider
shouts from its web:
- Carry on with the wedding
as I will provide a couple of them!
-
Oh, we are very well now!
We have everything,
but we lack the piper
Where shall we find him?
Then
the Mouse
coming out of its hole says:
- If the cat goes away,
I shall be the piper!
And
to the best jota**
And to the best bolero
The cat has shown up
And
has eaten the piper!
**Jota: traditional dance and singing from Aragón Region (Spain).
