<\/p>\n First, let\u2019s start off with a song you probably already know. Known to the English-speaking part of the world as \u201cWhite Christmas\u201d, <\/a>the Spanish version was interpreted by the Spanish singer Luc\u00eda Gil and with the collaboration of Ismael Garc\u00eda.<\/p>\n The lovely tune talks about the beauty of a white Christmas and how the kids enjoy Christmas as it approaches.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n This song is one of the most popular villancicos. The title means, A Fish in the River, and unlike other Christmas carols, this one is centered on the Virgin Mary as she washes newborn clothes in the river.<\/p>\n The song describes Mary\u2019s reflection in the river and then follows on about the birth of the baby Jesus. A story of Jesus told in a humble tone, it oozes with tranquility and harmony–no bells and whistles or strong drum beats–just a simple peaceful Christmas song.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In each stanza of Campanas de Bel\u00e9n, the song tells us a key moment of Jesus\u2019 birth. It starts with the announcement of the birth of Jesus which uses the metaphor of the sound of bells to express joy. It is followed by the celebration of the birth and how the shepherds go to Bethlehem with their \u201ccurd cheese, butter, and wine\u201d. <\/p>\n This Peruvian Christmas carol urges listeners to \u201csing, eat, drink\u201d to celebrate Christmas. Christmas is a season to be filled with joy so as the song goes, \u201ccanta, rie, bebe!\u201d to your heart\u2019s content!<\/p>\n Based on the tradition of how the Three Kings brought gifts on January sixth, this villancico is used to explain and remind the children what present each king brought to the manger when they came to Bethlehem to see the child. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n A traditional Spanish carol enjoyed by generation after generation especially in Latin America, Vamos, Pastores, Vamos <\/em>means \u201cLet\u2019s go, Shepherds, Let\u2019s go!\u201d. The song talks about the shepherds\u2019 journey to visit the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus in Bethlehem.<\/p>\n Created by Jerem\u00edas Quintero who is said to have composed about 3 thousand Christmas carols, the song has a soft and cheerful melody and easy lyrics.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Noche de Paz is the Spanish version of the Christmas song known all over the world. I\u2019m talking about \u201cSilent Night\u201d!<\/p>\n This song was originally composed in German by the Austrian schoolmaster and organist Franz Xaver Gruber and written by Austrian priest Joseph Mohr. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n This Christmas carol is very easy for children to memorize, no wonder it\u2019s a favorite among kids! When the Christmas season arrives, they usually sing this in schools and the little ones repeat: “rin, rin”. <\/p>\n The title translates to \u201cTowards Bethlehem goes a donkey, jingle jingle\u201d and talks about–you guessed it–a donkey on his way to Bethlehem.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Another Spanish Christmas carol that talks about a donkey, this one is about a \u201cLittle Donkey from the Savannah\u201d. The song is also often referred to as El Burrito de Bel\u00e9n <\/em>or \u201cThe Little Donkey from Bethlehem\u201d.<\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n Very popular in Latin America, this Venezuelan Christmas carol was created by Chilean harpist and composer Hugo Cid for the 1972 Christmas season.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Yet another Spanish Christmas song about a little donkey! “Arre borriquito” means \u201cCome on, little donkey\u201d. This playful and humorous yet somewhat mischievous song with a catchy rhyme is usually one of the favorite songs of little kids. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n There you go with ten Spanish Christmas carols.
