This song teaches the days of the week in Spanish. It is from Los pimpollos, an educational television program from Peru. There is an official YouTube channel where you can hear lots of educational songs from Los pimpollos.
As this song says, the days of the week give our lives order. Learning the days of the week helps children place events in time and understand routines.

The words to this song are on the video, but I have included them below with a translation. The days of the week are not capitalized in Spanish.
La semana / The Week
Los días de la semana / The days of the week
son siete lindas ventanas / are seven pretty windows.
Ayudan a que la vida tenga orden y control. / They help our lives have order and control.
Si sabes como se llaman, / If you know the names
las siete lindas ventanas, / of the seven pretty windows,
ayúdanos con tu canto / help us with your song
a llamarlas por favor. / to name them, please.

miércoles, jueves, / Wednesday, Thursday,
viernes, y sábado / Friday and Saturday
