La peregrinacion / The piligrimage/ Svētceļojums Part 2 from “Navidad Nuestra“ by Ariel Ramírez /Argentina/, 1964. Navidad Nuestra is a folk drama of the nativity of Jesus Christ in the rhythms and traditions of Hispanic America. The second song of the suite tells of Joseph and Mary going to Bethlehem. It speaks of the trial of the trip and the difficulty of finding a place to stay. This song is subtitled huella pampeana. La huella is a folk dance that was popular in Argentina in the 19th century. THE PILGRIMAGE Follow the trail, follow the trail Joseph and Mary Across the frozen Pampas Thistles and nettles. Follow the trail, follow the trail Cutting through the fields There is no shelter, no inn Keep on walking. Little flower in the field, Carnation of the air If no one puts you up Where will you be born? Where will you be born, little flower? Now that you are growing Frightened dove Sleepless cricket Follow the trail, follow the trail Joseph and Mary With a hidden god Nobody knew Follow the trail, follow the trail The pilgrims Lend me a ruined house For my child Follow the trail, follow the trail Through suns and moons The little almond eyes Olive skin. Oh, little donkey in the field Oh, reddish-grey ox My child is coming Make some space for him A thatched hut Is the only shelter I have Two friendly breaths (the ox and the donkey) The bright moon Follow the trail, follow the trail Joseph and Mary With a hidden god Nobody knew.
