Qu\u00e9 bonito ni\u00f1o chiquito<\/strong> – Colombina<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Composer: Anonymous<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like A los maytines era<\/em>, this piece illustrates the journey of the word \u201cvillancico\u201d: from denoting pastoral works to naming Christmas songs. By way of introduction, Carles Blanch improvises on the vihuela in the manner of Mudarra, the Renaissance canon from Seville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a1Qu\u00e9 bonito
Ni\u00f1o Chiquito!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pariendo la virgen,
dos buenas mugeres
serv\u00edan al parto
y faz\u00edanle plazeres
al ni\u00f1o.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Desque lo ovo parido
la virgen con prudencia,
luego lo adoraron,
d\u00e1ndole rreveren\u00e7ia
al ni\u00f1o.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

La Virgen Mar\u00eda,
como era mo\u00e7uela,
ci\u00f1\u00f3lo cuerdamente
con una faxuela
al ni\u00f1o.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c1ngeles del \u00e7ielo
muy dul\u00e7e cantavan
\u00abGloria in excelsis Deo\u00bb.
Asy lo acallavan
al ni\u00f1o.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

What a lovely
little Child!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the Virgin gave birth,
two good women
attended the birth
and brought delight
to the Child.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When she had given birth,
the Virgin, in her wisdom,
they straightaway adored him,
paying reverence
to the Child.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Virgin Mary,
being but a young girl,
wisely swaddled
with a little band
the Child.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Angels from heaven
sang very sweetly
\u201cGloria in excelsis Deo\u201d.
And so they hushed
the Child.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
