A little Spanish help for my daughter please.

[Wizard]

My daughter knows how to sing happy birthday in spanish that she learned from another school. Today the teacher ask her to write it out so they all could learn it and sing it also.......

Problem, I don't know Spanish and she is asking me to help her spell it...................Those that know me know I can't spell well to begin with.

Would any of our Spanish speaking brothers or sisters from the board be kind enough to post it for me
?
I don't even have a spanish dictionary to look it up for her....

Thank you if any can help me........ And a nine yera old little girl will thank you also.............

I know a little but not enough for that. However, there are some online translating sites, I think Yahoo has one? Or do a Google search for "translating from english to spanish"

Have her type it into MS Word and set the language to Sapnish (anyone of the many versions of Spanish Dictionaries -- probably "Spanish (Mexico)") -- spelling it as close as she can.

Then run a spell check on it.

Spanish is very easy to spell phonetically so she should be able to get close enough that a spell check will make the right suggestions.

I found this which I think you're looking for...

: Estas son las mañanitas
: que cantaba el rey David;
: a las muchachas bonitas
: se las cantamos aquí.

and this which is the long version...

LAS MAÑANITAS.

Estas son las mañanitas
que cantaba el rey David;
a las muchachas bonitas
se las cantamos aquí.

Si el sereno de la esquina
me quisiera hacer favor
de apagar su linternita
mientras que pasa mi amor.

Ahora, sí, señor sereno,
le agradezco su favor:
prenda usted su linternita,
que ya ha pasado mi amor.

Despierta, mi bien despierta
mira que ya amaneció:
ya los pajaritos cantan,
la luna ya se metió.

El día en que tú naciste
nacieron todas las flores;
en la pila del bautismo
cantaron los ruiseñores.

Quisiera ser solecito
para entrar por tu ventana
y darte los buenos días
acostadita en tu cama.

De las estrellas del cielo
quisiera bajarte dos:
una para saludarte
y otra para decirte adiós.

Ya viene amaneciendo,
ya la luz el día nos dió:
levántate de mañana,
mira que ya amaneció.
