Las Mañanitas

These are the little mornings, that King David used to sing
Today, being your saint's day, we sing them to you here
Wake up, my dear wake up, look it's already dawn
The birds are already singing, the moon has already set

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
In the baptismal font, the nightingales sang
(The dawn is coming, the daylight has come
Get up in the morning, look it's already dawn)

I wish I were a little sun, to come in through your window
And give you good morning while you're lying in your bed
I wish I were a Saint John, I wish I were a Saint Peter
To come and greet you, with the music of heaven
(With gardens and flowers, today I come to greet you)
Today, being your saint's day, we come to sing to you
