| 2. Dadme albricias, hijos, d’Eva |
| Sons of Eve, reward my tidings! Why should we make gifts to you? |

| Pay my boon, and sing for joy, for tonight is born our Savior, |
| the Messiah promised to us, Man and God, a virgin’s boy. |
| By his birth He gives us pardon for the sin and wrong we do. |
| Born is He, the Adam new. Almighty God, what glad tidings! |

| 3. Ríu, Ríu, Chíu |
| Refrain: Ríu, ríu, chíu guard our homes in safety. |
| God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our Lady. |
| He who’s now begotten is our mighty Monarch, Christ our Holy Father in |
| human flesh embodied, He has brought atonement by being born so humble; |
| though He is immortal, as mortal was created. Many ancient prophets told |
| that He would come; now within our own time we know it has come true. |
| God in shape of human we see on earth’s domain, man in heaven reigns, |
| so He wished it done to aid us. He has come to offer life to dead and dying, |
| He who comes to atone for the fall of all mankind; light of hope, farshining, |
| is He, this baby boy, Lamb of God, our joy, just as good Saint John related. |
| In His wish to please us, God could do no other, loving us so deeply, |
| than make of her a mother. He who was His Father was born of her tonight; |
| He who gave her life, was His own Son mild and gracious. We have now the very |
| One we’ve always prayed for. Let’s all go as neighbors and presents we will bear. |
| Let’s no longer tarry our love and faith to give, since He came to live here among us as our Savior. |
