First Noel
The first Noel, the angel did say,
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep,
On a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Born is the King of Israel.
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the the East, beyond them far;
And to the earth it gave great light,
And so it continued both day and night.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Born is the King of Israel.
This star drew night to the northwest,
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest;
And there it did both stop and stay,
Right over the place where Jesus lay.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Born is the King of Israel.
Primeiro Natal
O primeiro Natal, o anjo anunciou,
Foi a certos pastores pobres que estavam no campo;
No campo onde cuidavam de suas ovelhas,
Numa noite fria de inverno que era tão profunda.
Natal, Natal, Natal, Natal,
Nasceu o Rei de Israel.
Eles olharam pra cima e viram uma estrela
Brilhando no Leste, longe além;
E à terra deu grande luz,
E assim continuou tanto de dia quanto de noite.
Natal, Natal, Natal, Natal,
Nasceu o Rei de Israel.
Essa estrela se aproximou do noroeste,
Sobre Belém ela fez sua pausa;
E ali parou e ficou,
Bem sobre o lugar onde Jesus estava.
Natal, Natal, Natal, Natal,
Nasceu o Rei de Israel.
