Canción de Reyes (Enero 6)

You can listen to it in mp3

With water, soap, and a little tube
Today I started making bubbles
Some flew beautifully
Others fell like fools

I made a bubble so big
That inside it fit well
A whole dreamy landscape
And a herald that said

Attention... Christian knight
Because today is January sixth
And just like every year
The legend repeats itself
The most beautiful of the arcane

The three wise men are crossing
Between two dates, the bridge
They’re throwing out toys
Like tossing confetti

Balthazar rides a horse
Prancing in front
Gaspar rides a camel
And Melchor on an elephant

A slow caravan
How slowly it goes
Among the stars
Of the vastness!

There are so many people in the world
With so many little kids
That it’s impossible for them to
Satisfy my wishes

But my gift was lovely
I’ll keep it in my memories
It was seeing the kings pass by
See them! See them!
