Maria Consulates of your travels!
we have come, here Bethlehem, decorated with trophies.
we stand at that tavern
who are too tired and too tired you are.
The tower body slowly six
You have a little 'of the place, O ye of Grey Knight ?
A bit 'of place for me and Joseph?
"Gentlemen, we regret it, it's night of wonder,
are too many foreigners: the rooms I crammed."
The tower body slowly seven
Oste del Moro, you have a shelter for us?
My wife no longer holds, and I'm so broke!
"All I have full hotel, lofts and galleries:
attempt to White Stag, that tavern below.
The tower body slowly eight
O ye of the White Stag, a basement at least
you to sleep? Do not send us somewhere else!
"activates the comet. All I have full hotel
"activates the comet. All I have full hotel
of astronomers and scholars, who have come here from every where.
The tower body slowly nine
Innkeeper of Tre Merli , a sister of mercy!
think about where I was and how far!
"But I have people from the rooftops: waiting for the star.
Son necromancers, magicians Persians, Egyptians, Greeks ...
The tower body slowly ten
Ostedi Cesarea ... "An old carpenter? Hotel?
His wife? Albergarli per niente ?
L'albergo è tutto pieno di cavalieri e dame
non amo la miscela dell'alta e bassa gente ! "
Il campanile scocca le undici lentamente
La neve ! Ecco una stalla ! Avrà posto per due ?
Che freddo ! Siamo a sosta. Ma quanta neve, quanta !
un po' ci scalderanno quell'asino e quel bue...
Maria già trascolora, divinamente affranta...
Il campanile scocca la Mezzanotte Santa
E' nato ! Alleluja ! Alleluja !
E' nato il Sovrano Bambino.
La notte che già fu sì buia,
risplende d'un astro divino.
Orsù cornamuse, più gaie
suonate : squillate, campane !
Venite pastori e massaie,
o genti vicine e lontane !
E' nato Alleluja Alleluja !
