Translation of the song lyrics En La Navidad - Héctor Lavoé, Yomo Toro, Daniel Santos

En La Navidad (original)

Mara fu por cierto
Si madre del cordero
Pero con amor sincero
Fu su nacimiento,
Un raro portento
Claro se ver
Y con potestad
Veremos el da Pero de gran alegra
En la Navidad,
De gran alegra mi amigo
En la Navidad.
Y esto fue anunciado
Si antes de nacer
Que se haba de ver,
Fu profetizado
El verlo encarnado
En una doncella
Siendo pura y bella
Lo anunci Jacob
Pero que la figur
All en una estrella,
Que la figur mi hermano
All en una estrella.
No temas hoy da,
As el ngel le dijo
S que tendr un hijo
La Virgen Mara
El se llamara
El Dios de verdad
Lleno de bondad,
Cario y amor,
Pero para salvador
De la humanidad,
Pero para salvador oiganme
De la humanidad.
En la raiz de un pino, mi hermano
Se estaba peinando
La Virgen Mara
Perlas derramando,
El nio llorando,
Joaqun lo meca
Y lo entretena
Con hojas del vergel.
Pero vamos a Beln
Que di a luz Mara.
Ay!
vamos a Beln, mi hermano
Que di a luz Mara.

En La Navidad (translation)

Mara was by the way
yes mother of the lamb
but with sincere love
It was his birth from her,
a rare wonder
Of course I can see
and with authority
We will see the day But with great joy
During Christmas,
With great joy my friend
During Christmas.
And this was announced
if before birth
What was to be seen,
was prophesied
Seeing it incarnate
in a maiden
Being pure and beautiful
Jacob announced it
But what the figure
All in a star,
that the figure my brother
All in a star.
Do not fear today,
So the angel told him
I know that I will have a son
The Virgin Mary
he will be called
The God of truth
full of kindness,
affection and love,
but for savior
Of humanity,
but for savior listen to me
Of humanity.
At the root of a pine, my brother
he was combing his hair
The Virgin Mary
spilling pearls,
the child crying,
Joaqun rocked it
and entertains him
With leaves of the orchard.
But let's go to Beln
What gave birth Mara.
Oh!
Let's go to Beln, my brother
What gave birth Mara.
