1 The holly and the ivy

when they are both full grown,

of all the trees that are in the wood

the holly bears the crown.

Refrain:

The rising of the sun

and the running of the deer,

the playing of the merry organ,

sweet singing in the choir.

2 The holly bears a blossom,

white as the lily flower,

and Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,

to be our sweet Saviour. [Refrain]

3 The holly bears a berry,

as red as any blood,

and Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ

to do poor sinners good. [Refrain]

4 The holly bears a prickle,

as sharp as any thorn,

and Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ

on Christmas day in the morn. [Refrain]

5 The holly bears a bark,

as bitter as any gall,

and Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ

for to redeem us all. [Refrain]

6 The holly and the ivy,

when they are both full grown,

of all the trees that are in the wood

The holly bears the crown. [Refrain]

Stille Nacht !
Heilige Nacht !
Alles Schläft, ein samwacht nur das traute, hoch heilige Paar
Holder knabe im lockigen Haar
Schlafe in himmlischer, Ruh'
Schlafe in himmlischer, Ruh !

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight.
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia,
Christ the Savior is born!
Christ the Savior is born.

Alles Schläft, ein samwacht nur das traute, hoch heilige Paar

Holder knabe im lockigen Haar

Schlafe in himmlischer, Ruh'

Hirten erst Kund gemacht

Lurch der Engel Halleluja

Tönt es laut von fern und nah

Christ der Retter ist da,

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.

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight.
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia,
Christ the Savior is born!
Christ the Savior is born.

Silent night, holy night!
Son of God love's pure light.
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus Lord, at Thy birth.
Jesus Lord, at Thy birth.

Noite, calma e serena
Noite, clara e ligeira
Beleza profunda e indesvendável,
Vulnerável, cheia de vida

Noite, escura e bela
Noite, com ares de princesa
Espelho prateado e sombrio
Que esconde as mágoas no rio

Noite, lenta adormecida
Noite, sempre adorada
Onde os amantes se abrigam
Onde o tempo já não é tempo

TRADUCTION

Nuit, calme et serène
Nuit, claire et légère
Beauté profonde et indévoilable,
Vulnérable, pleine de vie

Nuit, noire et belle
Nuit, avec des airs de princesse
Miroir argenté et sombre
Qui cache les maux dans le fleuve

Nuit, lente endormie
Nuit, toujours adorée
Où les amants s'abritent
Où le temps n'est plus temps
