Letras de The First Noel - The December People, John Wetton

The First Noel (original)

The first Noel, the Angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In the fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter’s night that was, oh so, so deep
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Looking out, they saw a star
In the east beyond them far
And to the earth it gave light
So they continued day and night
By the light of that star
Three wise men came from far
To seek the King was their intent
And to follow the star wherever it went
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Well, this star drew to northwest
Over Bethlehem it rest
And there it stopped and there it stayed
Over the place where Jesus lay
And those wise men three
Fell upon their knees
And offered there in His presence
Their gifts for all to see
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

(traducción)

El primer Noel, los Ángeles sí dijeron
fue a ciertos pastores pobres en los campos mientras yacían
En los campos donde yacían guardando sus ovejas
En una fría noche de invierno que era, oh, tan, tan profunda
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Nace el Rey de Israel
Mirando hacia fuera, vieron una estrella
En el este más allá de ellos lejos
Y a la tierra dio luz
Así continuaron día y noche
A la luz de esa estrella
Tres reyes magos vinieron de lejos
Buscar al Rey era su intención
Y seguir la estrella a donde fuera
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Nace el Rey de Israel
Bueno, esta estrella se dirigió hacia el noroeste
Sobre Belén descansa
Y ahí paró y ahí se quedó
Sobre el lugar donde yacía Jesús
Y esos tres reyes magos
Cayó de rodillas
Y ofrecido allí en su presencia
Sus regalos para que todos los vean
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Nace el Rey de Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Nace el Rey de Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Nace el Rey de Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Nace el Rey de Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Nace el Rey de Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
