Letter of the carol Two pieces of wood
Two pieces of wood
have already roofed the barn.
In the sky there is a star
that guides the wise men.
The child, José and María
molded in the mud,
give the Christmas image
ita jegua color pink.
Watermelon and bread gift
naranjitas and pakova,
peguerúke lo mitâ Ñandejara'i pe guarâ.
With chipa, dinner was made
and a piece of mbeju
We are on Christmas Eve,
the night of mborayhu.
How nice is the manger
mirana a little the yuu,
and on its banks singing
its sadness a kururú.
Watermelon and chipa gift
Naranjitas and pakova
peguerúke lo mitâ Ñandejara'i pe guarâ. Pese
The manger, the friends
And the love for Jesus
were linked to the cane
and the famous arro kesu.
In the earth the green grass
And in the mind an illusion
opaichagua oî the people ovy'a che korasô.
Watermelon and chipa gift
Naranjitas and pakova
peguerúke lo mitâ Ñandejara'i pe guarâ (bis).
