Lyrics

Riu riu chiu, la guarda ribera;
Dios guardo el lobo de nuestra cordera,
Dios guardo el lobo de neustra cordera.
El lobo rabioso la quiso morder,
Mas Dios poderoso la supo defender;
Quisola hazer que no pudiese pecar,
Ni aun original esta Virgen no tuviera.
Este qu’es nacido es el gran monarca,
Christo patriarca, de carne vestido;
hanos redimido con se hacer chiquito,
a un qu’era infinito, finito se hiziera.
Muchas profecias lo han profetizado,
Ya un nuestros dias lo hemos al consado
Adios humanado vemos en el suelo,
Yal hombre nelcielo porquel le quistera.
Yo vi mil garzones que andaban cantando,
por aquívolando, haciendo mil sones,
diciendo a gascones: «Gloria sea en el cielo
y paz en el suelo», pues de sus nasciera.
Este viene a dar a los muertos vida
y viene a reparar de todos la caída;
es la luz del día aqueste mozuelo;
este es el cordero que San Juan dixera.
Mira bien queos quadre que ansina lo oyera,
Que Dios no pudiera hacer la mas que madre,
El quera su padre hoy della nascio
Y el que la drio su hijo so dixera.
Pues que ya tenemos lo que deseamos,
todos juntos vamos, presentes llevemos;
todos le daremos muestra voluntad,
pues a se igualar con el hombre viniera.

Lyrics translation

Riu Riu chiu, La guarda ribera;
God keeps the Wolf Of Our Lamb,
God Save The Wolf of neustra Lamb.
The rabid wolf wanted to bite her,
But mighty God knew how to defend her;
Quisola hazer that I could not sin,
Not even original This virgin did not have.
This Born is the great monarch,
Christo patriarch, clothed flesh;
hanos redeemed himself with become little,
to one that was infinite, finite was made.
Many prophecies have prophesied it,
Already in our days we have it to consate
Adios humanado we see on the ground,
And the man in heaven for whom he loved.
I saw a thousand garzones singing,
by flying, making a thousand sounds,
saying to Gascons, " Glory Be In Heaven
and peace on the ground", then from his birth.
This one comes to give the dead life
and comes to repair all the fall;
it is the light of day that this mozzarella;
this is the lamb that St. John dixera.
Look What You quadre that ansina heard,
That God could not make more than mother,
He wants his father today della nascio
And the one who killed her son so dixera.
Well, we already have what we want.,
all together let's go, present let's take;
we'll all give you will show,
well to match with the man would come.
