Qué Linda Manito is a Spanish lullaby. It was featured in the fifth segment ("Loin du 16e") of the 2006 film, Paris, je t'aime[1], in which a young woman (Catalina Sandino Moreno) sings the song to both her baby and later to her employer's baby.

Lyrics

Qué linda manito que tengo yo,

qué linda y blanquita que Dios me dio

Qué lindos ojitos que tengo yo,

qué lindos y negritos que Dios me dio

Qué linda boquita que tengo yo,

qué linda y rojita que Dios me dio

Qué lindas patitas que tengo yo,

qué lindas y gorditas que Dios me dio

An English translation of the lyrics

What pretty little hands I have,

How pretty and white that God gave me.

What pretty little eyes I have,

How pretty and black that God gave me.

What a pretty little mouth I have,

How pretty and red that God gave me.

What pretty little feet I have,

How pretty and chubby that God gave me.
