The First Noel

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.

Narodil sa kráľ Izraela.

The first Noel the angel did say

Prvý Noel povedal anjel

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;

Niektorým chudobným pastierom ležiacim na poliach;

In fields where they lay keeping their sheep,

Na poliach, kde strážili svoje ovce,

On a cold winter’s night that was so deep.

V jednu chladnú zimnú noc, ktorá bola taká hlboká.

They looked up and saw a star

Pozreli hore a uvideli hviezdu.

Shining in the east, beyond them far;

Žiariace na východe, ďaleko za nimi;

And to the earth it gave great light,

A zemi dala veľké svetlo,

And so it continued both day and night.

A tak to pokračovalo vo dne i v noci.

This star drew nigh to the northwest,

Táto hviezda sa priblížila k severozápadu,

Over Bethlehem it took its rest;

Zastavila sa nad Betlehemom;

And there it did both stop and stay,

A tam sa zastavila a zostala.

Right over the place where Jesus lay.

Práve nad miestom, kde ležal Ježiš.
