La Posada
In the name of Heaven         
I beg you for lodging,         
for she cannot walk         
my beloved wife.
Don't be inhuman;         
Have mercy on us.         
The God of the heavens         
will reward you for it.
We are worn out         
coming from Nazareth.         
I am a carpenter,         
Joseph by name.
I'm asking you for lodging         
dear man of the house         
Just for one night         
for the Queen of Heaven.
My wife is Mary         
She's the Queen of Heaven         
and she's going to be the mother         
of the Divine Word.
May God pay, gentle folks,         
your charity,         
and thus heaven heap         
happiness upon you.
