Nani, nani: Canción de cuna (Anonymous, set by J. Rodrigo Vidre) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Nani, nani, nani,
nani, nani, quere el hijo,  
el hijo de la madre,  
de chico se haga grande.  

Ay,  
ay, durmite mi alma,  
durmite, mi vida,  
que tu padre viene  
con mucha alegría.  

Ay, avrimex la puerta,  
avrimex mi dama, avrimex!  
Que vengo muy cansado  
de arar las huertas.  

Ay, la puerta yo vos avro,  
que venix cansado,  
y verex durmido  
al hijo en la cuna.
