Navidad en Paz

I picked up (downloaded) the latest CD by Luis Miguel - Navidades - and have been playing it non-stop. Traditional Christmas Carols are presented with Miguel's signature sound of an accompanied orchestra.

The star on top of the tree, though, is the inclusion of Mi Humilde Oración which is, by far, my favorite song of the season.
Ahora soy mayor,
no soy el nino aquel,
pero sigo sonando como el.

Y sueno como (no),
con la palabra amor,
que vuela desde mi alma hasta mi voz.

No mas guerras,
no mas vidas rotas,
que se cure (en) nuestro corazon.
Todo el mundo deberia amar,
y mantener la hogera del amor,
este es mi humilde oracion.

You've probably heard it before in English. Its message is beautiful in any tongue because it is the perfect pitch, calling for unconditional love and hope. It truly is a Grown-Up Christmas List.



What's your favorite canción of the holidays? It's okay if it involves a reindeer ;)
