 (Sung text for setting by J. Rodrigo)
 Matches base text
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG
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.

Composition:

    Set to music by Joaquín Rodrigo Vidre (1901 - 1999), "Nani, nani: Canción de cuna", from Cuatro Canciones Sefardíes, no. 3
