Tran gian ai oi co hay chang
Day nua dem Thien Chua sinh ra tu trong chon hang lua
Troi dem suong tuyet vay quanh lanh lung
Oi chua rang ngoi thoi tre tho.

Anh sang xanh ngoi sao ngoi treo giua Belem soi thay hang lua
Dan loi phuong dong nhu niem hanh phuc trong long ba vua.

What child is this, who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping.

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary.

Why lies he in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.

So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come, peasant, king, to own him
The King of kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone him.
