Paroles et traduction Jan Smit - Stille Nacht

Stille Nacht

Stille nacht, heilige nacht
David's zoon, lang verwacht
Die miljoenen eens zaligen zal
Werd geboren in Betlehem's stal
Hij der schepselen, heer
Hij der schepselen, heer

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Crowned young virgin, mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht
Alles schläft, einsam wacht
Nur das traute, hochheilige Paar
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar
Schlaf in himmelscher Ruh
Schlaf in himmelscher Ruh

Silent Night

Silent night, holy night
David's son, so long awaited,
Who will bless millions of the blessed,
Was born in the stable in Bethlehem.
He, the Lord of all creatures,
He, the Lord of all creatures,

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright.
Crown'd with light, Mother and Child.
Holy Infant, so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon virgin Mother and Child.
Holy Infant, so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
