Said the night wind to the little lamb,
Do you see what I see?
Way up in the sky, little lamb,
Do you see what I see?
A star, a star, dancing in the night,
With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite.
Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy,
Do you hear what I hear?
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy,
Do you hear what I hear?
A song, a song, high above the trees
With a voice as big as a sea
With a voice as big as a sea.
Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king,
Do you know what I know?
In your palace warm, mighty king,
Do you know what I know?
A child, a child, shivers in the cold,
Let us bring Him silver and gold
Let us bring Him silver and gold.
Said the king to the people everywhere,
Listen to what I say,
Pray for peace, people everywhere!
Listen to what I say.
The child, the child, sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light.
