From the recording Corazón Alegre - Happy Heart
This song is good to use for call and response and teaching simple rhymes.
Sana, Sana is a traditional rhyme that is recited by many people throughout Latin America and abroad to help wipe their children’s boo-boos away. I composed the music and adapted the lyrics to fit into my version of a Tex-Mex Cumbia. My Tejano heritage, Ella Jenkins, and Selena were my inspirations.
Lyrics
Sana, sana / colita de rana / si no sanas hoy / sanarás mañana / CHORUS / Sana / Sana / colita de rana / colita de rana / si no sanas hoy / si no sanas hoy / sanarás mañana / sanarás mañana / Sana, sana, sana / colita de rana / si no sanas hoy / sanarás mañana. / Sana, sana, sana / chicka boom / sana, sana, sana / chicka boom / chicka boom chicka boom, boom, boom / chicka chicka chicka boom. / CHORUS
