On x factor Bjorn said it is about a mexican girl talking to another girl who has lost her boyfriend - saying like 'there are plenty more fish in the sea'. xx

ABBA recorded a Spanish and English version of Chiquitita. The lyrics to all Spanish recorded ABBA tracks was written by husband and wife team Buddy and Mary McCluskey, barring Ring Ring which had lyrics by Doris Band. The music for Chiqutita was written by Bjorn and Benny. Yes the original versions of Chiquitia, in both English and Spanish, was recorded by ABBA in 1979.

This song was written for UNICEF, and Angetha is speaking to a small child (Chiquitita) living in despair and poverty, trying to give hope to the child. ABBA donated all royalties from this song to UNICEF.
The song was originally called In The Arms of Rozellita but Bjorn couldn't find a matching story, so changed the title.

I know they were going to use an English word but chiquitita fit the music better so they went for that instead.

Originally, this was called "In The Arms Of Rozellita." Bjorn Ulvaeus, who wrote the song, liked the title but couldn't find a matching story, so it became "Chiquitita." (thanks, royi - Rishon Le Zion, Israel)
This was written for a UNICEF benefit where ABBA performed the song. ABBA donated the rights for the song to UNICEF (which still owns them). (thanks, Vineeta - Rockville, MD)
