These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Estas son las mañanitas
These are the mañanitas
Que cantaba el rey David
That King David used to sing
Hoy por ser día de tu santo
Today being your saint's day
Te las cantamos a ti
We sing them to you
Despierta, mi bien despierta
Awake, my good awake
Mira que ya amaneció
Look, the dawn is breaking
Ya los pajarillos cantan
The birds are singing
La luna ya se metió
The moon has already risen
Que linda está la mañana
How beautiful is the morning
En que vengo a saludarte
I come to greet you
Venimos todos con gusto
We all come with pleasure
Y placer a felicitarte
And pleasure to congratulate you
El día en que tu naciste
The day you were born
Nacieron todas las flores
All the flowers were born
En la pila del bautismo
At the baptismal font
Cantaron los ruiseñores
The nightingales sang
Ya viene amaneciendo
The day is dawning
Ya la luz del día nos dio
Already the light of day has given us
Levántate de mañana
Rise in the morning
Mira que ya amaneció
Look, the dawn is breaking
De las estrellas del cielo
From the stars in the sky
Tengo que bajarte dos
I've got two to bring you down
Una para saludarte
One to greet you
Otra para decirte adiós
One to say goodbye
Volaron cuatro palomas
Four doves flew
Por toditas la ciudades
All over the cities
Hoy por ser día de tu santo
Today being your saint's day
