This is a beautiful Andalusian Christmas carol about the journey that the Three Kings made following a star towards Bethlehem to bring gifts to the Child Jesus.
Christmas Carol The Three Wise Men
by Coro Yerbabuena
2000 years ago the books tell
that in an old stable in Bethlehem was born
a blessed child that would be the son
of that woman they called Maria
They say that a star guided the way
Three Wise Men towards their destiny
From Persia they set out with their caravan
a white star in the sky was shining
she is our guide
at last they found the star of the East that would take them
to a far away place
where in a stable will be born that child called Messiah
Take- Take us
they shouted to the sky
Take- Take us
lead us to HIM
that the road is long and we are reaching Jerusalem
Take- Take us (Take us, Take us)
they shouted to the sky
Take- Take us
lead us to HIM
and the white star marked the path that leads to Bethlehem.
three wise men from the east
following a star
the freezing cold
the heavy sand
the wind rises
kissing the dunes
draw three shadows
moonlight
Three wizards walk
they come from far away
to the King of Heaven
they want to meet him
The long way
that leads to Bethlehem
three wise men from the east
following a star
The night falls suddenly
and gets lost among the varal
Tomorrow we will continue, Baltasar told them
I feel that it is close
little can be missing
with the clear of the day we will cross the Jordan
and while i was sleeping
an angel from heaven appeared to him
find the child
that star guides you
that Herod does not know
where the son is born
of Joseph and Mary
Three Wise Men from the East came to see him.
to venerate it, to know it
to the King of Heaven
José hugged him and whispered to him
don’t be afraid
that here is your mother
little star
The shepherds were full of joy
to meet the Son of Mary
at dawn
Presents, gifts to the Child brought
in the cold night
and they knelt
before his messiah
And he was born in Bethlehem
between the ox and the mule
And he was born in Bethlehem
The stars saw the most beautiful face that could be born
And he was born in Bethlehem
And he was born in Bethlehem
And he was born in Bethlehem
naked and with nothing at dawn
And he was born in Bethlehem
The wind blew and caressed her face at dawn
And he was born in Bethlehem
And he was born in Bethlehem
The Wizards arrived at their destination
behind was the desert sand
the days and nights on the way
the moon, the stars and the winds
Before her eyes a newborn
who sleeps in the arms of Mary
Three men that you feel chill
before the image of the new Messiah
And he was born in Bethlehem
between an ox and a mule in the dark night
And he was born in Bethlehem
The stars saw the most beautiful face that could be born
And he was born in Bethlehem
And he was born in Bethlehem
And he was born in Bethlehem
naked and with nothing at dawn
And he was born in Bethlehem
The wind blew and caressed her face at dawn
And he was born in Bethlehem
And he was born in Bethlehem
