Candellight Carol
烛光颂
VERSE 1
How do you capture the wind on the water?
How do you count all the stars in the sky?
How do you measure the love of a mother
Or how can you write down a baby's first cry?
你如何去捕捉水上之微风？
你如何去数算空中繁星？
你如何去测量母亲的慈爱？
你又如何记下一婴孩初啼？
CHORUS
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Angels are singing; the Christ child is born
微烛光，天使光，火光和星光
照耀祂摇篮到曙光破晓
荣耀归于至高真神
天使齐欢唱，基督今降生
VERSE 2
Shepherds and wise men will kneel and adore him
Seraphim round him their vigil will keep
Nations proclaim him their Lord and their Saviour
But Mary will hold him and sing him to sleep
牧羊人和博士跪拜在祂前
撒拉弗环绕在他们身边
万国宣告祂为主，祂为救主
但马利亚却低唱拥祂入眠
CHORUS
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Angels are singing; the Christ child is born
微烛光，天使光，火光和星光
照耀祂摇篮到曙光破晓
荣耀归于至高真神
天使齐欢唱，基督今降生
VERSE 3
Find him at Bethlehem laid in a manger
Christ our Redeemer asleep in the hay
Godhead incarnate and hope of salvation
A child with his mother that first Christmas Day
伯利恒马槽里祂安然躺卧
救赎主基督睡在干草上
上帝道成肉身，救赎的盼望
这子与母成为第一个圣诞
CHORUS
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
Silent night, holy night, all is calm and all is bright
Angels are singing; the Christ child is born
微烛光，天使光，火光和星光
照耀祂摇篮到曙光破晓
荣耀归于至高真神
天使齐欢唱，基督今降生
