Las Mañanitas

These are the little mornings
That King David used to sing
Today, as it's your birthday
We sing them to you

Wake up, my dear, wake up
Look, it's already dawn
The birds are already singing
The moon has already hidden

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 coming
The daylight has already come
Get up in the morning
Look, it's already dawn

These are the little mornings
That King David used to sing
Today, as it's your birthday
We sing them to you

Wake up, my dear, wake up
Look, it's already dawn
The birds are already singing
The moon has already hidden
