Performance Notes
Arre Borriquito is a traditional Spanish song that celebrates the Christmas season. The rider
encourages the little donkey to” hurry up, they don’t want to miss the festival in Bethlehem!”
O
Giddy-up little donkey, giddy-up donkey, giddy-up,
Hurry up because we’re late,
Giddy-up little donkey, we’re going to Bethlehem
Because tomorrow is a holiday and the day after too

The opportunity to sing a Spanish song with its alternative pronunciations of vowels and
consonants gives the singer insight into language diversity in the world. Be sure to use tall
vowels and consonants with every attempt to remove geographical accents from the song.
Sing authentic Spanish, as if you were a native!
