Traditional: The First Nowell (マキビトヒツジヲ) - Vienna Boys Choir/Schubert-Akademie/Gerald Wirth

Written by：Traditional

The first Nowell the angels did say

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay

In fields where they lay keeping their sheep

On a cold winters night that was so deep

Nowell Nowell Nowell Nowell

Born is the king of Israel

They looked up and saw a star

Shining in the east beyond them far

And to the earth it gave great light

And so it continued both day and night

Nowell Nowell Nowell Nowell

This star drew nigh to the northwest

O er Bethlehem it took its rest

And there it did both stop and stay

Right over the place where Jesus lay

Nowell Nowell Nowell Nowell

Born is the king of Isra
