journey of the angelsSomewhere ﹡ in a winter night ﹡ the angels ﹡ begin their flight; ﹡ dark skies

with miles to go, ﹡ no footsteps ﹡ to be lost in snow.

They fly to you ﹡ Oh, new-born king ﹡ they fly to you ﹡ Oh, angels sing

One is sorrow, ﹡ one is peace, ﹡ one will come ﹡ to give you sleep, one is comfort, ﹡ one is grief, ﹡ one will take ﹡ the tears you weep.

New star ﹡ in a midnight sky, ﹡ in heaven ﹡ all the angels fly. ﹡ Soft wings so true, ﹡ and all things they will give to you. ﹡ Somewhere ﹡ in a winter night ﹡ the angels ﹡ begin their flight.

Tonight, ﹡ all sing. ﹡ Oh, angels, ﹡ a new-born king. ﹡ Tonight, ﹡ all sing. ﹡ Oh, angels ﹡ a new-born king.

Have you seen the moon above? ﹡ It lights the sky in silver.

Green is in the mistletoe ﹡ and red is in the holly, ﹡ silver in the stars above that shine on everybody. ﹡ Gold is in the candlelight and ﹡ crimson in the embers.

White is in the winter night ﹡ that everyone remembers.

Have you heard the boys all sigh ﹡ when all the girls are skating? Have you heard the sweetheart’s cry ﹡ for all this time they’re waiting?

Green is in the mistletoe ﹡ and red is in the holly, ﹡ silver in the stars above that shine on everybody. ﹡ Gold is in the candlelight and ﹡ crimson in the embers.

White is in the winter night ﹡ that everyone remembers.

Have you seen the children playing? Tiny hands are frozen! Have you seen them hurry home when suddenly it’s snowing!

Green is in the mistletoe ﹡ and red is in the holly, ﹡ silver in the stars above that shine on everybody. ﹡ Gold is in the candlelight and ﹡ crimson in the embers.

White is in the winter night ﹡ that everyone remembers.

Have you heard the bells are ringing, ﹡ ringing out their story? Have you heard the choir singing? ﹡ Glory! Glory! Glory!

o come, o come, emmanuelO come, O come, Emmanuel, ﹡ to free your captive Israel

that mourns in lonely exile here ﹡ until the son of God appear

Time goes by, ﹡ and the snow is drifting ﹡ slowly in the sky ﹡ cold, cold night, as you lie beside me ﹡ I can hear your heartbeat.

You have lost yourself in dreaming, ﹡ I have lost myself in you, now we lie beneath the sky; ﹡ stars and midnight blue.

For he keeps the beat ﹡ of marching feet ﹡ he keeps the beat so true ﹡ he wants to sing and hopes to bring ﹡ (a) Happy Christmas Day to you

He keeps the beat ﹡ of marching feet ﹡ he keeps the beat inside someone has come ﹡ to mend his drum

Now his heart lights up with pride

last time by moonlightThe winter sky above us ﹡ was shining ﹡ in moonlight, ﹡ and everywhere around us ﹡ the silence

Oooh, remember this, ﹡ for no-one knows ﹡ the way love goes. Oooh, remember this, ﹡ for no-one knows ﹡ the way life goes.

We walked the road together ﹡ one last time ﹡ by moonlight, ﹡ as underneath the heavens ﹡ the slow chimes at midnight, ﹡ but nothing is forever, ﹡ not even ﹡ the starlight at midnight, ﹡ not even the moonlight…

Oooh, remember this, ﹡ for no-one knows ﹡ the way love goes. ﹡ Oooh, remember this, ﹡ for no-one knows the way life goes. ﹡ Oooh, remember this, ﹡ for no-one knows ﹡ the way love goes.

Oooh, remember this, ﹡ for no-one knows ﹡ the way life goes.

Translation

…a wonderful thing Once, we were singing the story of a great journey, the moonlight on water, the shores, a star, the sky. To set sail, a wonderful thing. To sail away. It’s true. Once, the open sea under the evening star. And so we sailed away. In this day we sing of the white snow, the moonlight on ice, a tear and rain. To set sail. a wonderful thing. To sail away. It’s true. Wayfarers see the sky, the ocean and the earth. To set sail, a wonderful thing. To sail away . It’s true. Go! Go! The sea, the sea under the evening star. To set sail, a wonderful thing. To sail away. It’s true. For already it is the twentieth year! Oh, time is a dream! To set sail, a wonderful thing! To sail away. It’s true. And perhaps tomorrow we will sail away. Sail away.

miraculum

o Semel canebamus Fabulam magnae diei,

lunae lucem in aqua, litora, stellam, caelum.

Vela dare. (o)Miraculum.

Vela dare. Vero. Semel salum

sub Hesperus. Ita vela dedimus.

In hodierna die

canimus albae nivis, lunae lucem in gelu,

lacrima et pluvia. Vela dare.

(o)Miraculum. Vela dare. Vero.

Viatores ecce caelum,

oceanus et terra!

Vela dare. (o)Miraculum.

Vela dare. Vero. Ite! Ite!

Mare, mare sub vespertina stella

Vela dare.

(o)Miraculum. Vela dare. Vero.

Et iam annus vicesimus!

Tempus est somnium!

Vela dare. (o)Miraculum.

Vela dare. Vero. Et fortasse

crastinus deis vela dabimus. Vela. Vela dabimus. Vela. Vela dabimus. Vela.
