My annual Mexican Christmas Carol.

I had intended to post this after midnight, because December 12th is the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, which celebrates Las Posadas on the 12th, a highly traditional celebration in Mexico, which is celebrated on several different days.

I decided not to wait the extra three hours because I was feeling down, and needed a pick me up.

With my donkey of the savanna, I go the way to Bethlehem
If they see me, I am going the way to Bethlehem

The bright morning star lights my footpath
If they see me, I am going the way to Bethlehem

Tuqui tuqui tuqui tuqui, tuqui tuqui tuqui ta
Hurry up, my little donkey. I want to be there, already

Tuqui tuqui tuqui tuqui, tuqui tuqui tuqui tu
Hurry up, my little donkey. Let's go see Jesus

With my little guitar I go singing, and my donkey goes trotting
If they see me, I am going the way to Bethlehem
