Lyrics of Las Mañanitas Tapatias - Los Lobos, Lalo Guerrero

Las Mañanitas Tapatias (original)

Estas son Las Mananitas
Que cantaba el Rey David
Hoy por ser dia de tu santo
Te las cantamos a ti
Despierta mi bien, despierta
Mira que ya amanecio
Y los pajarillos cantan
La luna ya se metio
Que linda esta la manana
En que vengo a saludarte
Venimos todos con gusto
Y placer a felicitarte
El dia en que tu naciste
Nacieron todas las flores
Y en la plia del bautismo
Cantaron los ruisenoreas
Ya viene amaneciendo
Ya la luz del dia nos vio
Levantate de manana
Mira que ya amanecio
(English Translation:)
Of all the stars in the heavens
We would like to give you two
To tell you, Dear Abuelito
Happy birthday, we love you
If I were a ray of sunshine
Through your window I would peek
And give you a besito
On your pudgy little cheek
Ya viene amaneciendo
Ya la luz del dia vos vio
Lavantate de manana
Mira que ya amanecio

(translation)

These are the mornings
Whats did sing the King David
Today for being your saint's day
we sing them to you
Wake up my good, wake up
Look already dawned
And the little birds sing
The moon is already set
how beautiful is the morning
In which I come to greet you
We all come with pleasure
And pleasure to congratulate you
the day you were born
All the flowers were born
And in the baptismal plia
The nightingales sang
It's already dawn
Already the light of day saw us
get up in the morning
Look already dawned
(English Translation:)
Of all the stars in the heavens
We would like to give you two
To tell you, Dear Grandpa
Happy birthday, we love you
If I were a ray of sunshine
Through your window I would peek
And give you a little kiss
On your pudgy little cheek
It's already dawn
Already the light of day saw you
Get up in the morning
Look already dawned
