    A Spanish Christmas Carol from Bolivia – “HUACHI TORITO” (Giddy-up Little Bull)

    Saturday, December 17th, 2005

    Here’s a Bolivian Christmas song in Spanish and with an English translation…

    Huachí toritó (Villancico)
    (Spanish)

    Que le daremos al niño bonito.
    Que le daremos que no le haga mal,
    le daremos una cesta de guindas
    para que coma y pueda jugar.

    Al huachí, huachi toritó
    toritó del corralitó
    Al huachí, huachi toritó
    toritó del corralitó.

    Al niñó recién nacido
    todos le ofrecen un don,
    yo soy pobre, nada tengo
    le ofrezco mi corazón.

    Huachitó, toritó
    toritó del corralitó
    Huachitó, toritó
    toritó del corralitó.

    San José y María
    y Santa Isabel
    vagan por las calles
    de Jerusalén.

    Preguntando a todos
    del niño Jesús
    Todos les responden
    que ha muerto en la cruz.
    Todos les responden
    que ha muerto en la cruz.

    Al huachí, huachi toritó
    toritó del corralitó
    Al huachí, huachi toritó
    toritó del corralitó.

    Here’s an English translation of Huachi toritó

    Giddy-up, Little Bull
    (Christmas Carol)

    What will we give to the nice baby
    What will we give that’d do him no harm
    We’ll give him a basket of Morillo cherries
    So he can eat and play.

    Giddy-up! Giddy-up, little bull
    Little bull from the little farm.
    Giddy-up! Giddy-up, little bull
    Little bull from the little farm.

    To the new-born baby
    They all give a present
    I am poor, I have nothing,
    I give him my heart.

    Giddy-up, little bull
    Little bull from the little farm.
    Giddy-up, little bull
    Little bull from the little farm.

    Saint Joseph and Mary
    And Saint Elizabeth
    Are roaming in the streets
    Of Jerusalem.

    They’re asking everybody for
    News of the infant Jesus
    All of them answer
    He died on the cross.

    Giddy-up! Giddy-up, little bull
    Little bull from the little farmyard
    Giddy-up! Giddy-up, little bull
    Little bull from the little farmyard.

    Many thanks to Susana Mariscal, Daniel Dorado and Joaquin Dorado for contributing this song, and to Monique Palomares at Mama Lisa’s World en français for the English translation. ¡Muchas gracias!
