This song and music video have a wonderful message for Mamá on Mother’s Day. The song is upbeat and fun and you will love Mariana Iranzi! Mariana is originally from Argentina. An accomplished professional musician, she also composes and performs Spanish songs for children. Her personality comes shining through in this video; it is sure to have both kids and adults singing along with smiles on their faces.
Looking at language, this song works well with children learning Spanish. It teaches the most natural thing to say to Mom on Mother’s Day – ¡Feliz Día, Mamá! Also, it has lots of verbs that children use to describe daily activities such as compartir, jugar, reír, leer, llorar, abrazar, pasear, dibujar. Mostly, the song is engaging, quality music that children, parents and teachers will love.
Many thanks to Mariana for permission to embed the YouTube video here and share the lyrics to her song on Spanish Playground. The lyrics are below the video.
Mother’s Day – ¡Felíz día Mamá!

Siempre estás conmigo para compartir
Vamos a la plaza, me llevas al jardín.
Jugamos, nos reímos, siempre estás aquí
Para leerme un cuento antes de ir a dormir.
Felíz día mamá, tenemos que festejar!
Happy Mother’s Day! We have to celebrate this day.
Siempre estás conmigo para cuidarme bien.
Me abrazas cuando lloro, cuando no me siento bien.
Me enseñas, me proteges, siempre estás aquí
Para hacer que mi día sea el más felíz.
Felíz día Mamá, tenemos que festejar!

Thank you for being there for me.
Siempre estás conmigo para compartir
paseamos, dibujamos, nos sabemos divertir.
Jugamos, nos reímos, siempre estás aquí
Para leerme un cuento antes de ir a dormir.
Siempre estás conmigo para cuidarme bien
Me bañas, me cocinas cosas ricas también.
Me enseñas, me proteges, siempre estás aquí
Para hacer que mi vida sea muy felíz.
Felíz día Mamá, tenemos que festejar!
