O
little
town
of
Bethlehem
Ô
petit
village
de
Bethléem
How
still
we
see
thee
lie
Comme
tu
es
paisiblement
couché
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
Mais
dans
tes
rues
sombres
brille
The
everlasting
light
La
lumière
éternelle
The
hopes
and

of
all

Les

et
les
peurs
de

And

Christ
is
born
of
Mary
Car

And
gathered
all
above
Et
rassemblé
tous
ci-dessus
While
mortals
sleep,
the
angels
keep
Alors
que
les
mortels
dorment,
les
anges
gardent
Their
watch
of
wondering
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
partage
avec
les
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
Où
les
âmes
douces
le
recevront
toujours
The
dear
Christ
enters
in
Le
cher
Christ
entre
O
holy
Child
of
Bethlehem
Ô
saint
enfant
de
Bethléem
Descend

our
sin
and
enter

Chasse
notre
péché
et

Nais
en
nous
