MANANITA SONG
How beautiful is the morning
As we come and sing to you
With Gods early morning
blessing
With pleasure we sing to you
On the day that you were born
The flowers came to bloom
And at the baptismal font
All the saints brought forth
their songs
Chorus:
The dawn is now appearing
The rays of the sun
breakthrough
Arise early this bright morning
As we sing Happy Birthday to
You
I wish I was Saint Peter
How I wish I was Saint John
As we bring this salutation
An the very early dawn
From all the stars in heaven
How I wish I get you two
One to tell you Good Morning
And another to bid you adieu.
With a bouquet of carnation
We have come to sing our
song
And make your day full of color
So that you may carry on
Chorus:
The dawn is now appearing
The rays of the sun
breakthrough
Arise early this bright morning
As we sing Happy Birthday to
You
Chorus:
The dawn is now appearing
The rays of the sun
breakthrough
Arise early this bright morning
As we sing Happy Birthday to
You
As we sing Happy Birthday to
You
ROUND THE LAY
We are here to greet you
On your natal day
We are here to sing you a

Round the lay

Chorus:

From the lay ole happy holiday
It is a birthday round the lay
From the lay ole

On your natal day
We are here to sing you a

Round the lay
