The First Noel (translation)

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 in the king of israel.

They looked up and saw a star shining in 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 in the king of israel.

Noel, noel, noel, noel, born in the king of israel.
