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 the sea
With a voice as big as the 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.”
Do you hear what I hear?
Do you hear what I hear?
Do you hear what I hear?
