"Las Mañanitas": what Mexican people sing on the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. These verses are also sung on the morning of someone's birthday. There are many verses, but here is the most common verse:

English version:

These are the morning verses
That King David used to sing.
Because today is your birthday,*
We are singing them to you.
Chorus
Awaken, my dear, awaken,
And see that the day has dawned;
Now the little birds are singing,
And the moon has set.

Spanish version:

Éstas son las mañanitas
Que cantaba el Rey David.
Hoy por ser dia de tu santo,
Te las cantamos a ti.
Coro
Despierta, mi bien, despierta,
Mira que ya amaneció
Ya los pajaritos cantan,
La luna ya se metió.
After Mass, everyone returns home for a day of feasting and celebration. Mexican food is known and enjoyed all over the Americas. It is easy to put together some family favorites and some new dishes for a fiesta in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
