(English)
A la puerta del cielo
Venden zapatos
Para los angelitos
Que andan descalzos
Duérmete niño
Duérmete niño
Duérmete niño
Arrú arrú
A los niños que duermen
Dios los bendice
A las madres que velan
Dios las asiste
Duérmete niño
Duérmete niño
Duérmete niño
Arrú arrú
At the gates of heaven,
They sell shoes
For the little angels
That go barefoot.
Sleep baby,
Sleep baby,
Sleep baby,
Hush-a-bye now.
The children who sleep,
God bless them.
The mothers who watch,
God helps them.
Sleep baby,
Sleep baby,
Sleep baby,
Hush-a-bye now.
Notes
This lullaby is from 16th century Spain.
