Lamonnoye Bernard - Burgundian Carol слова песни
Burgundian CarolThe winter season of the year,When to this world our Lord was born,The ox and donkey, so they say,Did keep his holy presence warm. How many oxen and donkeys now If they were there when first he came, How many oxen and donkeys you know At such a time would do the same?And on that night it has been toldThese humble beasts so rough and rude,Throughout the noght of holy birthDrank no water, ate no food. How many oxen and donkeys now If they were there when first he came, How many oxen and donkeys you know At such a time would do the same?As soon as to these humble beastsAppeared our Lord, so mild and sweet,With joy they knelt before his GraceAnd gently kissed His tiny feet. How many oxen and donkeys now Dressed in ermine, silk and such, How many oxen and donkeys you know At such a time would do as much?Written by Bernard LaMonnoye, ca 1700. Translated by Oscar BrandRecorded by the Weavers.filename[ BURGUNDNplay.exe BURGUNDNRG===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY===
