El dueño de la arepa / The owner of the arepa

Hay una arepa esperando,
sobre el asador negreado,
se acerca un ser claro,
es el moho, viene despacio
quiere invadir el objeto preciado.

There is an arepa waiting, on the blackened grill, a clear being approaches it, it is the mold, which comes slowly and wants to invade the precious object.

Cuando a la comida se acerca,
sale el dueño de la arepa,
se levanta enfadado
a proteger su bien preciado.

Se sienta a comer,
la arepa siempre sabe bien,
es su comida, la debe proteger,
de seres que la quieran comer.

When the meal approaches, the owner of the arepa comes out, he stands up angrily to protect his precious good.
He sits down to eat, the arepa always tastes good, it is his food, he must protect it, from beings that want to eat it.

Cuando su barriga ha llenado
se guarda en la parte de abajo,
pero, el moho de nuevo se acerca,
tiene hambre y quiere un pedazo de arepa.

El dueño de la arepa le da un pedazo,
para que el moho deje de estar molestando,
así se va tranquilo, despacio
dejando la arepa, con su propietario.

When his arepa belly has filled, he keeps it at the bottom, but, the mold again approaches, it is hungry and wants a piece of arepa.
The owner of the arepa gives him a piece, so that the mold will stop bothering him, so it goes away quietly, slowly leaving the arepa with its owner.
