"Yo vide una garza moraDándole combate a un ríoAsí es como se enamoraTu corazón con el míoLuna, luna, luna, luna llenaAnda muchacho a la casaY me traes la carabina, jioPa’ matar este gavilánQue no me deja gallinaLuna, luna, luna, luna llenaLa luna me está mirandoYo no sé lo que me veYo tengo la ropa limpiaAyer tarde la lavéLuna, luna, luna, luna llena"
English Translation

The panel door was scratch built using various widths of card stock glued to a cardstock backing.
