It's all in a song
To celebrate
the end of the school year in San Jacinto, the
students took part in a song competition. They had to write and perform songs on the
theme of reading and books. The two
winning groups were from the second and third years (ages 12-14), and their
songs really capture the spirit of the library project which has sought to
promote a love of reading amongst all the students.

Yo Quiero
Yo sólo
quiero leer
libros
yo sólo quiero leer cuentos
pero no quiero leer solito
yo quiero un gran grupo de amiguitos
quiero llevar este libro amigo a
quien
lo pudiera necesitar.
Coro:
Yo quiero tener un millón de libros
y si están viejos los voy a empastar
yo quiero que todos brillemos juntos
y que unidos leamos más.
Yo sólo quiero un cambio nuevo
y con los libros lo obtendremos
tendremos una mejor cultura y a
través
de la lectura nosotros brillaremos
mucho más.
Coro:
Yo quiero tener un millón de libros
y si están viejos los voy a empastar
yo quiero que todos estemos juntos
y que unidos
leamos más.

Translation: What I want
I just want to read books
I just want to read stories
But I don’t want to read on my own.
I want a big group of friends
I want to take my friend,this book
To the person who needs it most.
Chorus:
I want to have a million books
And if they are old I will recover them.
I want everything to shine together
and together everyone will read more.
I just want a change
And with the new books we get
We will have a better culture
And by reading we will shine
So much brighter.
Chorus:
I want to have a million books
And if they are old I will recover them.
I want everything to shine together
And together everyone will read more.

Ven Conmigo
La ignorancia enfermedad fatal
te quita la esperanza de ver más
allá
ven conmigo a sentir ven conmigo a
descubrir
un mundo de letras, páginas sentir.
Coro:
Ven conmigo a volar
a un mundo de letras explorar
la ignorancia en el pasado ya
un día nuevo hoy va a comenzar.
Estudiando aprendes
leyendo sabes
nadie te engaña
ni al derecho ni al revés.
Coro:
Ven conmigo a volar
a un mundo de letras explorar
la ignorancia en el pasado ya
un día nuevo hoy va a comenzar.
Abre un libro
comienza a leer
comienza a aprender
historias de ayer.

Translation: Come
with me
Ignorance, that fatal illness
Takes away your hope and stops you looking ahead.
Come with me to feel, come with me to discover
A world of letters and pages.
Chorus:
Come with me to fly
To a world of letters to explore
Now leave ignorance in the past
Today a new day is about to begin.
Studying you learn
Reading you know
No-one will catch you out
Not in any way.
Chorus:
Come with me to fly
To a world of letters to explore
Now leave ignorance in the past
Today a new day is about to begin.
Open a book
Start to read
Start to learn
Stories of yesterday.
