Venezuelan ChristmasTraditions!

These are some of the Christmas tress and mangers from the houses in my street. The kids are called "Los Farolitos". Teacher Margarita goes out with the kids and together visit every house that has a manger and sing Christmas carols to our Baby Jesus. In Venezuela we called him Niño Jesus and he is the one kids write letters to ask for presents and good things for their families. The song is called Mi Burrito Sabanero. This was my favorite song when I was a little girl and still is.



BURRITO SABANERO
(Coro):
Con mi burrito sabanero
voy camino de Belén
Con mi burrito sabanero
voy camino de Belén
si me ven si me ven
voy camino de Belén
si me ven si me ven
voy camino de Belén

El lucerito mañanero
ilumina mi sendero
El lucerito mañanero
ilumina mi sendero
si me ven si me ven
voy camino de Belén
si me ven si me ven
voy camino de Belén

Con mi cuatrico voy cantando
mi burrito va trotando
con mi cuatrico voy cantando
mi burrito va trotando
si me ven si me ven
voy camino de Belén
si me ven si me ven
voy camino de Belén

Tuqui Tuqui Tuquituqui
Tuquituqui Tu qui Tu
Apúrate mi burrito
que ya vamos a llegar
Tuqui Tuqui Tuquituqui
Tuquituqui Tu qui Tu
apúrate mi burrito
vamos a ver a Jesús
