Esta Navidad Lyrics English Translation by Oscar Maydon
This Christmas all I asked for was to be with you
I don’t know the truth if even Santa heard my plea
It’s just that all year long for you I behaved so well
I don’t know if he’ll come but I haven’t lost the faith
So many things happen, another year has gone
A toast to those not here, and to new friends too
Not everything went right, but I am grateful
If my family is here, I feel so blessed
If the children come out running
It’s because Christmas has arrived
If the nights bring you memories
It’s because Christmas has arrived
This Christmas I want love
I don’t know if it’s gonna be possible
You just let me know that I’m checking my clock
Time won’t come back and I want to know you
Jingle bell, jingle bell, I want to see you even more
This year we increased the fame and the money
But despite these luxuries, the cars, the Cuban
I wish you were in my bed
Give you a kiss while the bells are having dinner
Let the sweet Havanas surround the tree
Your porcelain doll
Don’t you see that no one beats you
When dawn comes I hope you’re there tomorrow
Sitting at the table with my dad and with my mom
I’m your knight, mami, if you are my lady
Only with you I want a healthy life
If the children come out running
It’s because Christmas has arrived
If the nights bring you memories
It’s because Christmas has arrived
The little tree and the neighborhood lights
The carols playing on the radio
If from the punch I wake up drunk
It’s because Christmas has arrived
If the children come out running
It’s because Christmas has arrived
If the nights bring you memories
It’s because Christmas has arrived
The little tree and the neighborhood lights
The carols playing on the radio
If from the punch I wake up drunk
It’s because Christmas has arrived
Gift me another kiss before Santa leaves
Mami, this 28th I’ll prepare a posada
I waited so long for this month to see us, baby
I know your intentions and they’re the same as mine
If the children come out running
It’s because Christmas has arrived
If the nights bring you memories
It’s because Christmas has arrived
The little tree and the neighborhood lights
The carols playing on the radio
If from the punch I wake up drunk
It’s because Christmas has arrived
