from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Dime Niño de quien eres
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Dime Niño de quien eres
todo vestido de blanco. 
Soy de la Virgen Maria 
y del Espiritu Santo.
 
Resuenen con alegria
los cánticos de mi tierra 
y viva el Niño de Dios 
que nació en la Nochebuena. 

La Nochebuena se viene, tururú 
la Nochebuena se va. 
Y nosotros nos iremos, tururú 
y no volveremos más. 

Dime Niño de quien eres 
y si te llamas Jesús. 
Soy amor en el pesebre 
y sufrimiento en la Cruz. 

Resuenen con alegría 
los cánticos de mi tierra 
y viva el Niño de Dios 
que nació en la Nochebuena.

One stanza is quoted and translated by George Eliot in her poem Sweet evenings come and go, love.
