El Día de Tu Cumpleaños

My little one: you came into the world
at a very special time.
You have completed a year,
and I come to greet you.
Sit at the table
next to your mom;
on the other side, let it shine
all the embers.

Since I have nothing to give you
and I wish I could,
I want the sun's rays
to wake you up.
And in the evening, the evening star
to come and greet you,
and later on, the moon
with all its brightness.

Let them serve you the sweet wine
and the candied cake,
and place at your window
the flower of the season.
In the center of your chest
I write to spell out
that the day of your birthday
is a very special thing.

On the day of your birthday
we should fly flags
from Africa to Magellan
with colorful flags.
Long live your birth,
little pear blossom!
With the will of heaven,
may you live a hundred more years!
