How Many Gifts!

The Three Wise Men mounted their camels
always on the move for days and nights,
after consulting learned men,
covering the head with a turban or hat.
In their hands they carry caskets with gifts
they are compared to the virtues of faith and charity.
Children wait for them to be given as gifts
and for this reason they promise to be good.
So they write the letter on time
asking Santa Claus to intercede
grant many gifts and beautiful toys,
make every boy and girl happy.
Everyone in the world will have a little present
sign of generosity and brotherhood
to say never lose hope
may the seed of peace be in every little heart.
