Soy negrito lindo, toco mi tambor
I'm a pretty little black boy, I play my drum
Y damos las gracias a nuestro Señor
And we give thanks to our Lord
Soy negrito lindo, toco mi tambor
I'm a pretty little black boy, I play my drum
Y damos las gracias a nuestro Señor
And we give thanks to our Lord
Llega, llega, llega, llegamos a ver
Come, come, come, we have come to see
Al rey de los cielos que acaba e' nacer
The king of the heavens who has just been born
Llega, llega, llega, llegamos a ver
Come, come, come, we have come to see
Al rey de los cielos que acaba e' nacer
The king of the heavens who has just been born
Al rey de los cielos que acaba e' nacer
The king of the heavens who has just been born
Al rey de los cielos que acaba e' nacer
The king of the heavens who has just been born
