The 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 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.
And by the light of that same star,
Three wise men came from country far;
To seek for a King was their intent,
And to follow the star wherever it went.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Born is the King of Israel.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Born is the King of Israel.
El Primer Noel
El primer Noel, el ángel dijo,
Fue a ciertos pobres pastores en los campos donde yacían;
En campos donde yacían cuidando sus ovejas,
En una fría noche de invierno que era tan profunda.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Ha nacido el Rey de Israel.
Miraron hacia arriba y vieron una estrella
Brillando en el Este, más allá de ellos lejos;
Y a la tierra le dio gran luz,
Y así continuó tanto de día como de noche.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Ha nacido el Rey de Israel.
Y por la luz de esa misma estrella,
Tres sabios vinieron de lejos;
Para buscar a un Rey era su intención,
Y seguir la estrella dondequiera que fuera.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Ha nacido el Rey de Israel.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Ha nacido el Rey de Israel.
