I remember seeing this skit when I was very young but, I wonder why it was sung in a different language about body parts and if it's going to be sung in a different language, maybe there should have been English subtitles at the bottom. The parts I remember when I was very young was that boy beating his chest at 0:33, the skateboarding kid from 0:34-0:36, and the walking kid at 0:46 where I used to think the singer was thinking "those kids are doing all sorts of things with their bodies."
I used to see these Spanish videos on Sesame Street all the time as a kid, but it's neat how I can understand them a little better now since I've had a year of college Spanish. This song goes a little fast for me, though, but it's nice to learn some of the body parts I didn't know before.
Wasn't there another song similar to this by the same person in Spanish, only instead of parts of the body, it was food at the market? Can anyone post that one?
I am trying to translate in my head what the English is, and os far I'm not doing too bad. I do not, however, know what DOY means. Would someone mind putting up all of the English to ths great song?
In the head, I have a mouth, I have the eyes and the nose. In the head, I have hair, and the ears, I have them here. Here my arms, I give him my arm, and I give him my hand. Hand of my brother, and five fingers I have on the hand. Hand with hand. And here is the neck and here is the chest, and here two legs and here two feet. and the head, and the two arms and the two hands and thus it is good. Head, neck arms and hands, chest, two legs and the two feet, and five digits on feet and on hands. ..
You have little friends, the body the. This is a literal translation. In english you would not say "In the head, I have a mouth" but I have a mouth in my head. We say hand in hand instead of hand with hand. Dedos is digits and can mean fingers or toes. The extra "el" after cuerpo is for the rhythm of the song. I see I translated yo doy abrazos wrong. Abrazos is hugs, so it means I give hugs. What language do you speak?
En la cabeza tengo la boca, tengo los ojos y la nariz En la cabeza yo tengo pelo, y las orejas las tengo aquí Aquí mis brazos yo doy abrazos le doy mi brazo y le doy mi mano
Mano a mi hermano y cinco dedos tengo en la mano Mano con mano Y aquí está el cuello y aquí está el pecho y aquí dos piernas y aquí dos pies Y la cabeza y los dos brazos y las dos manos y así está bien
Cabeza, cuello brazos y manos, pecho, dos piernas y los dos pies Y cinco dedos en pies y en manos Hace amiguitos el cuerpo el Hace amiguitos el cuerpo el Hace amiguitos el cuerpo el
Verdad, pero mi español es mejor ahora. Puesto que Sesame Street que me moví a continuación a Pocoyo, después Go Diego Go hasta ahora yo mira los telenovelas de Telemundo y puede entender casi todo. jajaja.
As far as "digits" goes, "dedo" can mean either "finger" or "toe" depending on the context, which is why I've translated it that way. Toes are sometimes even called "dedos del pie" (fingers of the foot) to avoid confusion.
This brings back some memories. I also seem to recall a similar song on Sesame Street in Spanish about food, primarily fruits and vegetables. Does anyone else remember this? Does anyone have this? If so, please post! And thanks for posting this.
I have vague memories of that one too, but haven't seen it since it was on PBS years ago. The clip was set in an outdoor market, with the food being offered for sale: besides fruits and vegetables, I saw milk, rice, sugar, and an ice cream cone.

Head, neck, arms and hands,
Chest, two legs and two feet,
And five digits on each foot and hand:
That, friends, is the body.
That, friends, is the body.
That, friends, is the body.
As far as "digits" goes, "dedo" can mean either "finger" or "toe" depending on the context, which is why I've translated it that way. Toes are sometimes even called "dedos del pie" (fingers of the foot) to avoid confusion.
