The Boys' Carol |
Piae Cantiones, a book of Latin carols compiled in Finland in 1582, gives us The Boys' Carol, with a translation of the original text from Elizabeth Poston's Penguin Book of Christmas Carols. |
Let the boys' cheerful noise Sing today none but joys Praise aloud, clear and proud, Praise to Him in chorus, Given from heaven for us. Virgin-born, born, born, Virgin-born, born, born, Virgin-born, on that morn Procreated for us. He who rules heaven and earth Lies in stall at His birth, Humble beasts at his feet See the Light eternal Vanquish realms infernal. Satan's done, done, done, Satan's done, done, done, Satan's done, God has won Victory supernal. Magi come from afar, See their sun, tiny one, Follow far little star, At the crib adoring, Man to God restoring. Gold and myrrh, myrrh, myrrh, Gold and myrrh, myrrh, myrrh, Gold and myrrh offered there, Incense for adoring. Man and boy, join in joy, Sing as heaven sings for joy, God this day here doth stay, Pour we forth the story Of His might and glory. So to God, God, God, So to God, God, God, So to God, glory be, In the highest, glory. Jingle Bell Rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away Jingle bell time is a swell time To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square In the frosty air
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells… |
