the madrigal group im in sang this last year...the thing that cracked us up is for the solo's you could honestly make up anything to say and people wouldn't no the difference lol! My partner did that as one of the gig's we had.

Excellent version. Very hard to do this ancient carol well most go to fast or to slow, this rendering was done perfect!

I prepared this carol for my primary school choir. The lyric sheet I used said 'de nuestra cordera', whereas on the mp3 I heard it was sung 'a nuestra cordera.' So I went with the printed version because at least it was in black and white. It seems I may have been wrong. Ah well, they sing it beautifully.

dios guarde el lobo de nuestra cordera

means god keeps the wolf from our sheep.

also to comment on the performance, you guys went flat.

[hcjuancamilo]

It should be "Dios guardo del lobo a nuestra cordera"... It means "God saved from the wolf our sheep"
