| Long ago on a starry night
| Tanto tempo fa in una notte stellata
|
| Shepherds saw a shining light
| I pastori videro una luce splendente
|
| Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding
| Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding
|
| (Ding, dong, ding dong)
| (Ding, dong, ding dong)
|
| A heavenly choir was singing upon
| Un coro celeste stava cantando
|
| A Christmas night
| Una notte di Natale
|
| Then they followed that burning star
| Poi hanno seguito quella stella ardente
|
| Through the night so cold so far
| Per tutta la notte così fredda finora
|
| Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding
| Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding
|
| (Ding, dong, ding dong)
| (Ding, dong, ding dong)
|
| A heavenly choir was singing upon
| Un coro celeste stava cantando
|
| That Christmas night
| Quella notte di Natale
|
| In a stable cold and dark
| In un freddo e buio stabile
|
| Their new King was born that night
| Quella notte nacque il loro nuovo re
|
| Oh, Jesus Christ
| Oh, Gesù Cristo
|
| And angels on that holy night
| E angeli in quella notte santa
|
| Sang praises for their King’s delight
| Cantavano lodi per la gioia del loro re
|
| Gold and myrrh, they would bring the King
| Oro e mirra, porterebbero il re
|
| They all came to honour Him
| Sono venuti tutti per onorarlo
|
| And Mary smiled at her little child
| E Mary sorrise al suo bambino
|
| While Joseph watched 'till the morning light
| Mentre Joseph vegliava fino alla luce del mattino
|
| And Mary smiled at her little child
| E Mary sorrise al suo bambino
|
| While Joseph watched 'till the morning light
| Mentre Joseph vegliava fino alla luce del mattino
|
| Then they followed that burning star
| Poi hanno seguito quella stella ardente
|
| Through the night, so cold so far
| Per tutta la notte, così freddo finora
|
| Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding
| Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding
