Lyrics
O Holy night! The stars are brightly shining
– O Nocte Sancta! Stellae splendide lucent
It is the night of our dear Savior’s birth
– Noite dos namorados”
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
– Diu mundum in peccato ponere et errorem pining
‘Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth
– ‘Donec ille apparuit et anima sua dignitas sensit
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
– Un sogno rivela come curare una ferita mortale
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
– In matutinis laudibus an genuit puerpera sola
Fall on your knees; O hear the Angel voices!
– Cade super genua tua, audi vocem angeli!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born
– O nocte divina, o nocte, Quando christus natus est
O night, O Holy night, O night divine!
– O Nocte, O Sancta, nocte divina!
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
– De laicis praesumentibus disputare De religione
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
– In his est Et illud de Perseverantia de Qua disputamus
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
– Et [quondam] electa a sanctissimo patre de caelo,
Here come the Wise Men from Orient land
– Venite sapientes de terra Orientali
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
– In ordine ad ipsam rei veritatem (de Quâ scilicet tunc non agebam),
In all our trials born to be our friend
– In omnibus iudiciis nostris natus est amicus noster
He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger
– Necessitatem nostram novit, infirmitas nostra non est alienus
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend
– Et fugit Ad Salices, et se cupit Ante videri.”
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend
– Et fugit Ad Salices, et se cupit Ante videri.”
Truly He taught us to love one another;
– De sin apollo pues nos comencamos;
His law is love and His Gospel is Peace
– Lex eius est amor Et Pax Eius Evangelium
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother
– Et [quondam] electa a sanctissimo patre de caelo, frater noster est
And in His name, all oppression shall cease
– Et in nomine eius cessabit omnis tristitia
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
– Dulcis hymnus laetitiae in grato choro suscita nobis
Let all within us Praise His Holy name
– Laudent Omnes in nobis nomen Sanctum Eius
Christ is the Lord; O praise His name forever!
– Christus Dominus, Laudate nomen eius in aeternum!
His power and glory evermore proclaim
– Eius potentia et gloria in aeternum proclamant
His power and glory evermore proclaim
– Eius potentia et gloria in aeternum proclamant
