Said the night wind to the little lamb,



"Do you see what I see?



Way up in the sky, little lamb,



Do you see what I see?



A star, a star, dancing in the night



With a tail as big as a kite,



With a tail as big as a kite"







Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy,



"Do you hear what I hear?



Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy,



Do you hear what I hear?



A song, a song high above the trees



With a voice as big as the sea,



With a voice as big as the sea"







Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king,



"Do you hear what I hear?



In your palace warm, mighty king,



Do you hear what I hear?



A Child, a Child shivers in the cold--



Let us bring him silver and gold,



Let us bring him silver and gold"







Said the king to the people everywhere,



"Listen to what I say!



Pray for peace, people, everywhere,



Listen to what I say!



The Child, the Child sleeping in the night



He will bring us goodness and light,



He will bring us goodness and light"
