Like the German Stille Nacht (Silent Night), Polish W Żłobie Leży (Infant Holy, Infant Lowly), and American Away in a Manger, Niño Lindo is a Venezuelan carol that evokes the image of the Virgin Mary rocking the Christ-child while singing a lullaby. Its lyrics state, in part:
Niño lindo, ante ti me rindo, Niño lindo, eres tú mi Dios. (Beautiful boy, before you I surrender, Beautiful boy, you are my God.)
A popular version of the carol, by American missionary and pastor George Lockwood, translates the opening lines as Child so lovely, here I kneel before you, Child so lovely, you are Christ, my God.
Featuring simple-but-engaging melodies and Latin rhythms, Niño Lindo is ideal as a change-of-pace selection on a program of Christmas carols.
