Lyrics
Riu riu chiu, la guarda ribera;
Dios guardo el lobo de nuestra cordera
Dios guardo el lobo de neustra cordera
El lobo rabioso la quiso morder
Mas dios poderoso la supo defender;
Quisola hazer que no pudiese pecar
Ni aun original esta virgen no tuviera
Riu, riu chiu..
Este qu'es nacido es el gran monarca
Christo patriarca de carne vestido;
Hemos redemido con se hazer chiquito
Aunqu'era infinito, finito se hiziera
Riu, riu chiu..
Translated:
River, roaring river, guard our homes in safety
God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our lady
God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our lady
Raging mad to bite her, there the wolf did steal
But our god almighty defended her with zeal
Pure he wished to keep her so she could never sin
That first sin of man never touched the virgin sainted
River, roaring river..
He who's now begotten is our mighty monarch
Christ, our holy father, in human flesh embodied
He has brough atonement by being born so humble
Though he is immortal, as mortal was created
River, roaring river..
