LOS PASTORES (INTRODUCTION)

Al Portal de Belén;  To the Gate of Bethlehem
Agua Fria version; audio, lyrics and melody (2, item 38); Robb No. 1933.

Al portal de Belén,
venid de sencilla
con sus crecidos anhelos
a ver al recién nacido;
entre la escarcha y el hielo
a ver al reciƩn nacido;
entre la escarcha y el hielo
que el que combinó sus amores
y sencillo corazón;
que dio la sangre en la cruz
por la humana redención;
que dio la sangre en la cruz
por la humana redención.

Translation

To the gate (manger location) in Bethlehem,
Come in simple faith and with great joy
To see the new-born;
Amid the frost and ice
To see the One who with love
And with a simple heart,
Shed his blood on the cross
In order that we be redeemed.
Shed his blood on the cross
In order that we be redeemed.

 

VAMOS TODOS A BELÉN

First verse and melody, Robb 1157A, Antón Chico-Corrales

Vamos todos a Belén con amor y gozo.
Adoremos al Señor, nuestro Redentor,
De la buena estrella divino dulzor
Hermosa doncella, Nos da el Salvador.
