Los Reyes Magos Lyrics in English by Cantoalegre

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Los Reyes Magos by Cantoalegre from Spanish to English.
Cuando los reyes en Galilea
When the kings in Galilee
Siguieron la estrella de Belén
followed the star of Bethlehem
Vieron al niño dormir en un pesebre
They saw the child sleep in a manger
Entre el buey y la mula
Between the ox and the mule
María y José
Mary and Joseph
Cuando los reyes vieron al niño
When the kings saw the child
En un portal cerquita de Belén
In a stable close to Bethlehem
Se confirmó la tradición más fiel
The truest tradition was confirmed
Que nos viste de fiesta
that dresses us for celebration
En cada Navidad
at every Christmas
¡Dios del cielo que hiciste la mañana
God of heaven that you made the morning
Y que cada día salga el sol!
and that every day the sun rises!
¡Dios del cielo muéstranos el camino
God of heaven show us the way
Y llénalo de amor!
and fill it with love!
Cuando los reyes en Galilea
When the kings in Galilee
Siguieron la estrella de Belén
followed the star of Bethlehem
Vieron al niño dormir en un pesebre
They saw the child sleep in a manger
Entre el buey y la mula
Between the ox and the mule
María y José
Mary and Joseph
Ya las campanas tocan la fiesta
Now the bells ring for the celebration
Porque en Belén nació el niño Dios
Because in Bethlehem the God Child was born
Y en su din don
And in their ding dong
Y el mundo se despierta
And the world wakes up
Y cada corazón le canta esta canción
And every heart sings this song to him
¡Dios del cielo que hiciste la mañana
God of heaven that you made the morning
Y que cada día salga el sol
And that every day the sun rises
¡Dios del cielo muéstranos el camino
God of heaven show us the way
Y llénalo de amor!

Did you like this lyrics translation?

Los Reyes Magos invites us on a sparkling journey with the Three Wise Men as they follow the guiding star to Bethlehem. The lyrics paint a warm picture of the first Christmas morning: baby Jesus resting in a humble manger, Mary and Joseph watching over him, and gentle animals sharing the scene. As the kings arrive, the moment confirms a beloved tradition that still “dresses us in celebration” every year. Their visit becomes a joyful reminder to keep wonder alive, let our hearts ring like festive bells, and look for the light that leads us toward love.

The song also turns into a prayerful chorus—“¡Dios del cielo… muéstranos el camino y llénalo de amor!”—asking God, the maker of every sunrise, to guide us daily. With its mix of tender imagery and lively calls to rejoice, Los Reyes Magos captures the magic of Epiphany, the warmth of shared faith, and the timeless invitation to wake up the world with kindness each Christmas season.
