bruce cockburn - riu rui chiu lyrics
riu, riu, chiu
la guarda ribera
dios guarde el lobo
de nuestra cordera
el lobo rabioso
la quiso morder
mas dios poderoso
la supo defender
quizole hazer que
no pudiesse pecar
ni aun original
esta uirgen no tuuiera
riu, riu, chiu
la guarda ribera
dios guarde el lobo
de nuestra cordera
este uiene a dar
a los muertos uida
y uiene a reparar
de todas la cayla
es la luz del dia
aqueste mocuelo
este es el cordero
que san juan dixera
riu, riu, chiu
la guarda ribera
dios guarde el lobo
de nuestra cordera
yo ui mil garcones
que andauan contando
por aqui bolando
haziendo mil sones
diziendo a gascones,
gloria sea en el cielo
y paz en el suelo
pues jesus nasciera
riu, riu, chiu
la guarda ribera
dios guarde el lobo
de nuestra cordera
este uiene a dar
a los muertos uida
y uiene a reparar
de todas la cayla
es la luz del dia
aqueste mocuelo.
este es el cordero
que san juan dixera.
riu, riu, chiu
la guarda ribera
dios guarde el lobo
de nuestra cordera
yo ui mil garcones
que andauan contando
por aqui bolando
haziendo mil sones
diziendo a gascones
gloria sea en el cielo
y paz en el suelo
pues jesus nasciera
riu, riu, chiu
la guarda ribera
dios guarde el lobo
de nuestra cordera
translation:
riu, riu, chiu (nightingale’s sounds)
the river bank protects it,
as god kept the wolf from our lamb
the rabid wolf tried to bite her
but god almighty knew how to defend her
he wished to create her impervious to sin
nor was this maid to embody original sin
riu, riu, chiu (nightingale’s sounds)
the river bank protects it,
as god kept the wolf from our lamb
he comes to give life to the dead
he comes to redeem the fall of man
this child is the light of day
he is the very lamb saint john prophecied
riu, riu, chiu (nightingale’s sounds)
the river bank protects it,
as god kept the wolf from our lamb
a thousand singing herons
i saw p-ssing,
flying overhead, sounding
a thousand voices
exhulting, “glory be in the
heavens, and peace on earth,
for jesus has been born.”
