Ya Viene El Niñito

Here Comes the Little One

Ya Viene El Niñito

Here comes the little one playing among the flowersYa viene el Niñito jugando entre flores
And the little birds sing him love songsY los pajaritos le cantan amores
The poor shepherds have woken upYa se despertaron los pobres pastores
And they’re bringing him straw and flowersY le van llevando pajitas y flores
The straw is cold, the bed is hardLa paja está fría la cama está dura
The Virgin Mary cries with tendernessLa Virgen María llora con ternura

All the stars are falling downYa nomás se caen todas las estrellas
At the feet of the child, whiter than they areA los pies del niño, más blanco que ellas
Pretty little one, a bunch of flowersNiñito bonito, manojo de flores
He cries, poor thing, for the sinnersLlora pobrecito por los pecadores
