The First Noel
(estrofes 1, 2 e 4)
==============


The First Noel the angels 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!



This star drew night to the Northwest
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest
And there it did both stop and stay
Right over the place where Jesus lay

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel!
Born is the King of Israel!
