La mona Jacinta
Se ha puesto una cinta
Se peina, se peina
Y quiere ser reina
Ay, no te rías de sus monerías
Mas la pobre mona
No tiene corona
Tiene una galera
De hoja de higuera
Ay, no te rías de sus monerías
Un loro bandido
Le vende un vestido
Un manto con plumas
Y un collar de espumas
Ay, no te rías de sus monerías
Al verse en la fuente
Dice alegremente
Qué mona preciosa
Parece una rosa
Ay, no te rías de sus monerías
Levanta un castillo
De un solo ladrillo
Rodeado de flores
Y sapos cantores
Ay, no te rías de sus monerías
La mona cocina
Con leche y harina
Prepara la sopa
Y tiende la ropa
Ay, no te rías de sus monerías
Su marido mono
Se sienta en el trono
Sus hijas monitas
En cuatro sillitas
Ay, no te rías de sus monerías
