Riu, Riu, Chiu: El Lobo Rabioso - King's Singers - YouTube
“Riu, riu, chiu,
guard our homes in safety.
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 this virgin sainted.
Rííu, rííu, chííu, . . .
He who's now begotten
Is our mighty Monarch,
Christ our Holy Father
In human flesh embodied.
He has brought atonement
By being born so humble;
Though He is immortal,
As mortal was created.
Rííu, rííu, chííu, . . .
Many ancient prophets
Told that He would come;
Now within our own time
We know it has come true
God in shape of human
We see on earth's domain,
Man in Heaven reigns,
So He wished it done to aid us.
Rííu, rííu, chííu, . . .
He has come to offer
Life to dead and dying,
He comes to atone for
The fall of all mankind;
Light of hope, farshining,
Is he, this baby boy,
Lamb of God, our joy,
Just as good Saint John related.
Rííu, rííu, chííu, . . .
In His wish to please us,
God could do no other,
Loving us so deeply,
Than make of her a mother.
He who was His Father
Was born of her tonight;
He who gave her life,
Was His own Son mild and gracious.
Rííu, rííu, chííu, . . .
We have now the very
One we've always prayed for.
Let's all go as neighbors
And presents we will bear.
Let's no longer tarry
Our love and faith to give,
Since He came to live
Here among us as our Savior.
Rííu, rííu, chííu, . . ."
