La virgen bajo a lavar 
sus blancas manos al rio 
el sol se quedo hechizado 
la luna se ha oscurecido 

riete niño no llores mas 
que ha mi me aflije verte llorar 
Ay si si si el verte llorar 
ay si si si el verte llorar 


The virgin goes to the river 
to wash her hands in the water 
The sun is stunned by her splendor 
the moon hides its face in wonder 

hush little baby, don't you cry 
mama will comfort you by and by 
hush little baby, don't you cry 
mama will sing you a lullaby 


Este niño que aqui esta 
durmiendo sobre unas pajas 
tan pobre y humilde es 
nuestro supremo monarca 

riete niño no llores mas 
que a mi me aflije verte llorar 
Ay si si si el verte llorar 
Ay si si si el verte llorar 

This baby, here in the manger 
To whom all glory is given 
This baby, so  poor and humble 
is king of earth and heaven 

hush little baby, don't you cry 
mama will comfort you by and by 
hush little baby, don't you cry 
mama will sing you a lullaby
