Lyrics

Riu riu chiu, la guarda ribera;
Dios guardo el lobo de nuestra cordera
Dios guardo el lobo de neustra cordera

El lobo rabioso la quiso morder
Mas dios poderoso la supo defender;
Quisola hazer que no pudiese pecar
Ni aun original esta virgen no tuviera

Riu, riu chiu..

Este qu'es nacido es el gran monarca
Christo patriarca de carne vestido;
Hemos redemido con se hazer chiquito
Aunqu'era infinito, finito se hiziera

Riu, riu chiu..

Translated:

River, roaring river, guard our homes in safety
God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our lady
God has kept the black wolf from our lamb, our lady

Raging mad to bite her, there the wolf did steal
But our god almighty defended her with zeal
Pure he wished to keep her so she could never sin
That first sin of man never touched the virgin sainted

River, roaring river..

He who's now begotten is our mighty monarch
Christ, our holy father, in human flesh embodied
He has brough atonement by being born so humble
Though he is immortal, as mortal was created

River, roaring river..
