Palomitas de Maiz

Peanut marzipan and nougat,
shortbread cookies and a bonbon,
we'll eat these holidays
my neighbors, you and I.

Tambourines will sound,
you'll play the tambourine.
We'll all sing together
until dawn without stopping.

So let's celebrate
this joyful Christmas
wishing everyone
happiness.

2005 is ending.
You'll eat the grapes,
keeping pace with the bells,
you might choke.

The Three Kings will arrive
and bring us gifts
that we eagerly await
without knowing what they'll be.

And if you've misbehaved,
you'll gnaw on coal,
and in the new year starting now,
you'll have to do better.

Peanut marzipan and nougat,
shortbread cookies and a bonbon,
we'll eat these holidays
my neighbors, you and I.

Tambourines will sound,
you'll play the tambourine.
We'll all sing together
until dawn without stopping.

So let's celebrate
this joyful Christmas
wishing everyone
happiness.
