Bethlehem’s Joy

There is joy in Bethlehem,

Christ the Lord to us is born,
Angels singing, Shepherds kneeling,
Wise men following a star,
For Christ is born! For Christ is born!
Glorify Him, glorify Him, glorify the Lord,
Glorify Him, glorify Him, glorify the Lord.

God fulfilled His promised word,

Sent the Savior Christ the Lord,
Angels gloriously proclaiming
Peace on earth, good will to men,
For Christ is born! For Christ is born!
Glorify Him, glorify Him, glorify the Lord,
Glorify Him, glorify Him, glorify the Lord.

There is joy in Bethlehem,

Yes there’s joy in Bethlehem,
All the children sing together,
There is joy in Bethlehem!

There is joy, there is joy, there is joy in Bethlehem!

There is joy, there is joy, there is joy in Bethlehem!
 Rasuna bland

Rasuna bland spre seara

Al clopotelor cant,
Caci vine, vine iarasi
Hristos pe-acest pamant.

Refren:
Tanarul crai,
Cu mult alai,
Vine din cer
Hai leru-i ler.

La fiecare casa
Se-aud colindatori
Cantarea lor frumoasa
Rasuna pana-n zori.

Refren.

Sculati crestini in graba

Si duceti-l prinos
Faceti-l loc la masa
Copilului HRISTOS.

Refren.
 Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow Se-aude hei, hei, hei

In a one-horse open sleigh Clopotei clopotei
O'er the fields we go Veseli clopotei
Laughing all the way Peste deal si peste vai
Bells on bobtails ring Se-aude hei, hei, hei
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing Τρίγωνα, κάλαντα,
A sleighing song tonight, Trigona, calanta
oh! σκόρπισαν παντού
Scorpisan pantu
Jingle bells, jingle bells κάθε σπίτι μια φωλιά
Jingle all the way Kate spiti mia folia
Oh, what fun it is to ride του μικρού Χριστού,
In a one-horse open Tu micru Hristu
sleigh, hey! τρίγωνα κάλαντα
Jingle bells, jingle bells Trigona kalanta
Jingle all the way μες στη γειτονιά
Oh what fun it is to ride Mes sti ghitonia
In a one-horse open sleigh ήρθαν τα Χριστούγεννα
Irtan ta Hristughena
Clopotei clopotei κι η Πρωτοχρονιά
Veseli clopotei Ki i protohronia
Peste deal si peste vai
Astăzi s-a nascut Hristos

Astăzi s-a nascut Hristos,

Mesia chip luminos
Laudați și cântați,
Și vă bucurați!

Mititel, înfășetel ,
În scutec de bumbăcel,
Laudăți și cântați,
Și vă bucurați!

Vântul bate, nu-l răzbate,

Neaua ninge, nu-l atinge,
Lăudați și cântați,
Și vă bucurați!

Și de acum până-n vecie,

Mila Domnului să fie,
Laudați și cântați,
Și vă bucurați!
