South Florida Christmas
expressing the joy of the incarnation and bringing smiles and good cheer to our fellow South Floridians
Luke 2:8-20
A note from our guest book 2009
"I heard about a house that was absolutely beautiful, covered in lights and didn't think it would be this remarkable! God bless. Lots of love. Carla"
This is a precious Latin American Christmas carol almost always sung by a young child. It has a beautiful air of humility and of the innocent love of a child.
The song is originally Venezualan, written by composer Hugo Blanco. It became popular when it was recorded by a young boy - who some say was Hugo's son, Hugo Blanco Jr.
We primarily play the song during the intermission between light shows and while the inflatables are on.
With my savannah donkey, I'm going to Bethlehem.
With my savannah donkey, I'm going to Bethlehem.
If they see me, if they see me, I'm going to Bethlehem.
If they see me, if they see me, I'm going to Bethlehem.
Tuquí, tuquí, tuquí, tuquí,
Tuquí, tuquí, tuquí, tu,
Hurry up my donkey,
We are almost there.
Tuquí, tuquí, tuquí, tuquí,
Tuquí, tuquí, tuquí, tu,
Hurry up my donkey,
We are going to see Jesus.
