Lyrics and translation Bing Crosby - It Came Upon a Midnight Clear




It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
C’est arrivé une nuit de Noël
It came upon the midnight clear
C’est arrivé une nuit de Noël
That glorious song of old
Ce chant glorieux d’antan
From angels bending near the Earth
Des anges se penchant près de la Terre
To touch their harps of gold
Pour toucher leurs harpes d’or
Peace on the Earth, goodwill to men
Paix sur la Terre, bonne volonté envers les hommes
From heaven′s all gracious king
Du roi tout gracieux des cieux
The world in solemn stillness lay
Le monde était en silence solennel
To hear the angels sing
Pour entendre les anges chanter
Still through the cloven skies
Encore à travers les cieux fendus
They come
Ils viennent
With peaceful wings unfurl
Avec des ailes pacifiques déployées
And still
Et toujours
Their heavenly music floats
Leur musique céleste flotte
O'er all the weary world
Sur tout le monde fatigué
Above its sad and lowly plains
Au-dessus de ses plaines tristes et basses
They bend on hovering wing
Ils se penchent sur des ailes qui planent
And ever o′er its Babel sounds
Et toujours au-dessus de ses sons de Babel
The blessed angels sing
Les anges bénis chantent
O ye
Ô vous
Beneath life's crushing load
Sous le poids écrasant de la vie
Whose forms are bending low
Dont les formes se penchent bas
Who toil along the climbing way
Qui peinent le long du chemin ascendant
With painful steps and slow
Avec des pas douloureux et lents
Look now
Regardez maintenant
For glad and golden hours
Pour des heures joyeuses et dorées
Come swiftly on the wing
Vient rapidement sur l’aile
O rest beside the weary road
Ô repose-toi au bord du chemin fatigué
And hear the angels sing
Et écoute les anges chanter
For lo the days are hastening on
Car voici que les jours se précipitent
By prophets seen of old
Vus par les prophètes d’autrefois
When with the ever circling years
Quand avec les années qui tournent sans cesse
Shall come the time foretold
Vient le temps prédit
When the new heaven and earth
Quand le nouveau ciel et la nouvelle terre
Shall own the prince of peace
Posséderont le prince de la paix
Their King
Leur roi
And the whole world
Et le monde entier
Send back the song
Renvoie le chant
Which now the angels sing
Que les anges chantent maintenant
