Representative Text

Estas son las mañanitas
que cantaba el rey David.
Hoy por ser día de tu santo
te las cantamos aquí.
Despierta, mi bien, despierta,
mira que ya amaneció.
Ya los pajaritos cantan,
la luna ya se metió.
Qué linda está la mañana
en que vengo a saludarte;
venimos todos con gusto
y placer a felicitarte.
El día en que tú naciste
nacieron todas las flores.
Y en la pila del bautismo
cantaron los ruiseñores.
Ya viene amaneciendo,
ya la luz del día nos dio.
Levántate de mañana,
mira que ya amaneció.
