Corderito blanco
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG
Corderito blanco de durmiendo estás,
Déjate, bien mío, déjate arrullar.
Si te duermes amor mio,
Yo te quiero despertar,
pues vinieron desde Oriente
los tres Reyes a adorar.
No te duermas, mi vida;
no te duermas, mi cielo;
arrorró, que te arrullo yo.
