The First Noel
The First Noel
1879The First Noel, the Angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!And by the light of that same star
Three Wise men came from country far
To seek for a King was their intent
And to follow the star wherever it went.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!This star drew nigh to the northwest
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest
And there it did both Pause and stay
Right o'er the place where Jesus lay.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!Then entered in those Wise men three
Full reverently upon their knee
And offered there in His presence
Their gold and myrrh and frankincense.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made Heaven and earth of nought
And with his blood mankind has bought.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!
Первый Ноэль
1879О рождении Иисуса, благодаря Ангелу
Самыми первыми узнали бедные пастухи,
Которые в поле пасли своих овец
Холодной глубокой зимней ночью.
Родился, родился, родился, родился,
Царь Израильский родился!Они посмотрели на небо и увидели звезду,
Сияющую так далеко от них на востоке.
От нее на Землю лился яркий свет,
Продолжавшийся литься и днем, и ночью.
Родился, родился, родился, родился,
Царь Израильский родился!Эта звезда стала перемещаться к северу-западу,
И над Вифлеемом она обрела покой.
И там, где она остановилась,
Прямо под ней лежал Иисус в яслях.
Родился, родился, родился, родился,
Царь Израильский родился!
