TU SCENDI DALLE STELLE
Tu scendi dalle stelle o Re del cielo,
e vieni in una grotta al freddo e al gelo,
e vieni in una grotta al freddo e al gelo.
O Bambino mio divino, io ti vedo qui a tremar.
O Dio beato!
Ah! Quanto ti costò l’avermi amato.
Ah! Quanto ti costò l’avermi amato.
A te che sei del mondo il Creatore,
mancano i panni e il fuoco, o mio Signore.
Mancano i panni e il fuoco, o mio Signore.
Caro eletto pargoletto, quanta questa povertà
più mi innamora, giacchè ti fece amor povero ancora.
Giacchè ti fece amor povero ancora.
Tu lasci del tuo Padre il divin seno,
per venire a tremar su questo fieno;
per venire a tremar su questo fieno.
Caro eletto del mio petto, dove amor ti trasportò!
O Gesù mio, perchè tanto patir, per amor mio…
JINGLE BELLS
Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh
Through the fields we go Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight.
chorus: Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh,
O Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago I thought I’d take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright Was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank Misfortune seemed his lot,
We ran into a drifted bank And there we got upsot.
A day or two ago The story I must tell
I went out on the snow And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by In a one-horse open sleigh
He laughed at me as I there sprawling laid But quickly drove away.
Now the ground is white, Go it while you’re young,
Take the girls along And sing this sleighing song.
Just bet a bob-tailed bay, Two-forty as his speed,
Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack! You’ll take the lead.

Non mi piace molto la canzone cambiata : tu scendi dalle stelle
