Lyrics and translation Traditional feat. Choir of King's College, Cambridge & Philip Ledger - Traditional / Arr. Ledger: "O Little town of Bethlehem"




Traditional / Arr. Ledger: "O Little town of Bethlehem"
Traditional / Arr. Ledger: "O Little town of Bethlehem"
O little town of Bethlehem
Ô petite ville de Bethléem
How still we see thee lie
Comme tu es paisible, mon amour
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
Au-dessus de ton sommeil profond et sans rêves
The silent stars go by
Les étoiles silencieuses passent
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
Et pourtant, dans tes rues sombres brille
The everlasting Light
La lumière éternelle
The hopes and fears of all the years
Les espoirs et les craintes de toutes les années
Are met in thee tonight
Se rencontrent en toi ce soir
O morning stars, together
Ô étoiles du matin, ensemble
Proclaim the holy birth
Proclamez la sainte naissance
And praises sing to God the King
Et chantez des louanges au Roi Dieu
And peace to men on earth
Et la paix aux hommes sur terre
For Christ is born of Mary
Car le Christ est de Marie
And gathered all above
Et a rassemblé tous les êtres
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Pendant que les mortels dorment, les anges gardent
Their watch of wond'ring love
Leur veille d'amour émerveillé
How silently, how silently
Comme silencieusement, comme silencieusement
The wondrous gift is given
Le don merveilleux est donné
So God imparts to human hearts
Ainsi Dieu accorde aux cœurs humains
The blessings of his heaven
Les bénédictions de son ciel
No ear may hear his coming
Aucune oreille ne peut entendre sa venue
But in this world of sin
Mais dans ce monde de péché
Where meek souls will receive him still
les âmes douces l'accueillent toujours
The dear Christ enters in
Le cher Christ entre
O holy Child of Bethlehem
Ô saint Enfant de Bethléem
Descend to us, we pray
Descends vers nous, nous te prions
Cast out our sin and enter in
Chasse notre péché et entre en nous
Be born in us today
Nais en nous aujourd'hui
We hear the Christmas angels
Nous entendons les anges de Noël
The great glad tidings tell
Annoncer la grande nouvelle
O come to us, abide with us
Ô viens à nous, reste avec nous
Our Lord Immanuel
Notre Seigneur Emmanuel
