"Vamos a Belén, muchachas" Cover By @elioe y sus maracas / "Let's go to Bethlehem, girls" Cover By @elioe and her maracas

Dear community, I bring you - like the Beatles - "with a little help from my friends" a "Venezuelan party bonus." It belongs to that musical genre that was performed from house to house, touring the neighborhood playing and singing in a more or less improvised group that often had members join in each house it visited.


This custom, due to various factors, some known to you who live far from Venezuela and others unknown, has been disappearing little by little, for this reason, even when it comes to happy songs, they reach us wrapped in a halo of nostalgia.


This song is a hymn to the residence. His first line confirms it with "Today everything seems prettier to me." We would say around here: "To make everything look more beautiful, you have to give it a truck!"

I suddenly remembered the

Lyrics


Let's go to Bethlehem, girls,
there is a beautiful one
there shining star,
lights the way.

Tinkerbell that in December
it spends its time echoing,
show me the way
that I'm looking for
because we already...

Let's go to Bethlehem, girls,
there is a beautiful one there shining star,
lights the way.

The lady of the house
don't let her hide from me
and bring the rum
that I am asking for
because we already...

Let's go to Bethlehem, girls,
there is a beautiful one there shining star,
lights the way
Let's go to Bethlehem.

Versión en Castellano

Estimada comunidad, les traigo - como los Beatles - " con una pequeña ayuda de mis amigos" un "aguinaldo venezolano de parranda". Pertenece a ese gènero musical que se interpretaba de casa en casa recorriendo el vecindario tocando y cantando en un grupo màs o menos improvisado que muchas veces se sumaba integrantes en cada casa que visitaba.


Esta costumbre, por diversos factores, unos conocidos por ustedes que viven lejos de Venezuela y otros desconocidos, ha ido desapareciendo poco a poco , por esto, aùn tratàndose de canciones alegres nos llegan envueltas en un halo de nostalgia.


Comparto con ustedes el vídeo de "Vamos a Belèn, muchachas" con la versión que le hiciera con su dulce voz la vocalista venezolana Marìa Teresa Chacín
