Music for this theme: Jose Luis Orozco
Un elefante se columpiaba
Sobre la (elephant trunk swaying) tela de una arana. (spider falling from web, finger movements)
Como veia que (cup hands like binoculars over eyes) resistia,
Fue a llamar a otro elefante.(call another elephant out)
Pum, Pum, Pum (movements like an elephant)
(Repeat for other numbers)
Dos elefantes se columpiaban
Sobre la tela de una arana.
Como veian que resistia,
Fueron a llamar a otro elefante.
Pum, Pum, Pum
Tres elefantes se columpiaban…
Cuatro…
Cinco…
In this song, “balanceaba” is sometimes sung in place of “columpiaba.” Children add one elephant to the spider web in each verse for long as they wish to continue singing.
A version of “Los elefantes” may be found in in De Colores and Other Latin-American Folk Songs for Children by Jose-Luis Orozco.
Un elefante se columpiaba
Sobre la tela de una araña.
Y como veiron que resistía
Fueron a llamar otro elefante.
Dos elefantes se columpiaba
Sobre la tela de una araña.
Y como veiron que resistía
Fueron a llamar otro elefante.
Tres elefantes…
Cuatro elefantes…
Cinco elefantes…

Un éléphant qui se balançait
Sur une toile d’araignée
Trouva ce jeu si intéressant
Qu’il alla chercher un deuxième éléphant
Deux éléphants qui se balançaient
Sur une toile d’araignée, ohé, ohé,
Trouvèrent ce jeu si intéressant
Qu’ils allèrent chercher un troisième éléphant
Trois…
autre fin:
Un éléphant qui se balançait
Sur une toile toile toile d’araignée
C’était un jeu tellement tellement amusant
Que tout à coup: Ba Da BouM!
autre version:
Un éléphant qui se balan-ance
Sur une assiette de faïence
Et comme cela l’amusait-ait-ait
Avec un autre il recommen-ence

One elephant went out to play,
Upon a spider’s web one day.
He had such enormous fun,
That he called for another elephant to come!
Two elephants went out to play…
Or as a group action song:
Description: All children sit in a circle on the floor. One child gets up and imitates an elephant with one arm dangling like a trunk, and the other arm dangling behind like a tail. The child then skips around the circle while everyone sings:
One elephant went out one day,
Upon a spiders web to play,
He / she had such tremendous fun,
That he called for another elephant to come.
The child then picks a friend to come and join him/her.
The friend stands behind the first child in the same position holding hands, as if they are elephants in the circus.
Everyone then continue to sing as the two elephants
skip around them:
Two elephants went out one day,
Upon a spiders web to play,
They had such tremendous fun,
That they called for another elephant to come.
This continues with each new elephant picking a friend until everyone is up. Then everyone sings for example:
Five elephants went out one day,
Upon a spiders web to play,
They had such tremendous fun,
But the web it broke and they all fell down.
Everyone then falls to the floor.
Un elefant se legăna
Pe o pânză de păianjen
Si fiindca ea nu se rupea
A mai chemat un elefant
Pam Pam
Doi elefanţi …
