Hi macaonghus!

The Harry Fox Agency licenses the mechanical right to the songs
?Unicornio Azul? and ?Alfonsina y el Mar?

What is a mechanical reproduction? 

?It is an audio-only recording, such as a phonograph record, compact
disc, or audio tape. A mechanical license does not include lyric
reprinting or sheet music print rights. For these rights, you must
contact the publisher(s) directly.?

I then searched the database at the Harry Fox Agency in order to find
out who you would have to get in touch with in order to use the lyrics
of those songs.
