Las Mañanitas

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
