O nuit trè sen
O nuit trè sen
O Holy Night
Christmas Carol
Christmas Carol
(Haitian Creole)
(English)
O nuit trè sen, bèl zetwal yo ap briye
Se lannuit lè Jezi Kri te fèt
Lontan lemonn te egare nan peche
Jouk li parèt e nanm mwen te viv ankò.
Kè:
O jou de jwa, tout lemonn ape rejwi
Pou gwo limyè kap fè yon nouvo jou
Mete jenou atè, tande zanj yo ap chante
O nuit trè sen, O nuit lè Kris te fèt
O nuit diven, O nuit, O nuit diven.
Nou swiv limyè sa avèk tout gran jwa
Kè nou briye avèk lanmou pou Jezi Kris
Nou adore Li ki vin fèt pou sove nou
Nou swiv li menm jan moun saj yo te swiv li.
O, Holy Night, beautiful stars are shimmering,
It is the night when Jesus Christ was born.
A long time this world of sin has been haunted,
Till He appears and my soul lives again.
(Chorus)
O day of joy, all the world rejoices,
For the light, makes a brand new day,
Go down on your knees, hear the angels sing.
O holy night, O night, when Christ was born,
O night divine, O night, O night divine.
We followed this light, with the greatest of joys,
Hearts overflowing with love for Jesus Christ.
We worship Him, the one who was sent to save us,
We follow Him, as the wise Mage have done before us.
You can hear the tune played on the piano in the recording below.
