Las Mañanitas
Que linda esta la mañana, en que vengo a saludarte
Venimos todos con gusto, y placer a felicitarte
El día en que tú naciste, nacieron todas las flores
Y en la pila del bautismo, cantaron los ruiseñores
Ya viene amaneciendo, ya la luz del día nos dio
Levántate de mañana, mira que ya amaneció
Quisiera ser solecito, para entrar por tú ventana
Y darte los buenos días, acostadita en tú cama
Quiesiera ser un san Juan, quisiera ser un san Pedro
Y venirlea saludar con musica del cielo
Con jazmines y flores, hoy te vengo a saludar
Hoy por ser día de tú santo, te venimos a cantar
The Little Mornings
How beautiful is the morning, in which I come to greet you
We all come with joy and pleasure to congratulate you
The day you were born, all the flowers were born
And in the baptismal font, the nightingales sang
Dawn is breaking, the daylight has come
Get up in the morning, see that it has dawned
I wish I were a little sun, to enter through your window
And give you good morning, lying in your bed
I wish I were a Saint John, I wish I were a Saint Peter
And come to greet you with heavenly music
With jasmines and flowers, today I come to greet you
Today being your saint's day, we come to sing to you
