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).
