Was
to
certain
poor
shepherds
in
fields
as
they
lay
C'était
à
certains
pauvres
bergers
dans
les
champs
où
ils
étaient
couchés
In
fields
where
they
lay
keeping
their
sheep
Dans
les
champs
où
ils
étaient
couchés,
gardant
leurs
moutons
On
a
cold
winter's
night
that
was
so
deep.
Par
une
froide
nuit
d'hiver
qui
était
si
profonde.

a

Ils
levèrent
les
yeux
et
virent
une
étoile
Shining
in
the
East
beyond
them
far
Brillant
à
l'Est
au-delà
d'eux,
loin
And
to
the
earth
it
gave
great
light
Et
à
la
terre,
elle
donna
une
grande
lumière
And
so
it
continued
both
day
and
night.
Et
ainsi
elle
continua,
jour
et
nuit.

of

la
lumière
de
cette
même
étoile
Three
Wise

came
from

Trois

To

où
qu'elle
aille.
