Текст песни Silent Night - John Denver , The Muppets

Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht
Alles schlaft, einsam wacht
Nur das treute hochheilige Paar
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh

On December 24th, 1818
The curate of a parish in Ovendorf, Austria, Joseph Moore
Gave a poem that he had written to a friend of his, Franz Gruber
Who was also the choirmaster and organist in that church
He asked Mr. Gruber if he would write music for his poem
That he might write it for two solo voices and guitar accompaniment
Because the organ being broken, he desperately wanted music to be part of their Christmas Eve service
Mr. Gruber wrote the melody to a song which has become the most beloved of all Christmas carols
Stille Nacht, in English, Silent Night
Schlaf in himmlischer, sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night (silent night), holy night (holy night)
All is calm (all is calm), all is bright (all is...)
'Round yon Virgin Mother and child
Holy Infant, so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Merry Christmas, everybody
Yeah, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, Uncle Kermit
Aw, thanks Robin, Merry Christmas, Piggy
Merry Christmas, Kermit
Merry Christmas, Jonathon
Merry Christmas, you guys
