Entre le bœuf et l’âne gris
Dort, dort, dort le petit fils
Mille anges divins, mille séraphins
Volent à l’entour de ce dieu d’amour.

Entre les deux bras de Marie
Dort, dort, dort le fruit de vie
Mille anges divins, mille séraphins
Volent à l’entour de ce dieu d’amour.

Entre les roses et les lys
Dort, dort, dort le petit fils
Mille anges divins, mille séraphins
Volent à l’entour de ce dieu d’amour.

 ... 

En ce beau jour si solennel
Dort, dort, dort l’Emmanuel
Mille anges divins, mille séraphins
Volent à l’entour de ce dieu d’amour.

Tussen de os en de ezel in

(Sung text translation for setting by P. Ayres)

See original

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the French (Français)

Tussen de os en de ezel in 
Slaapt het kindje
Duizend goddelijke engelen, duizend serafijnen
zweven rondom deze grote God van Liefde.

In Maria’s armen 
Slaapt de vrucht van het leven
Duizend goddelijke engelen, duizend serafijnen
zweven rondom deze grote God van Liefde.

Tussen de rozen en lelies 
Slaapt het kindje.
Duizend goddelijke engelen, duizend serafijnen
zweven rondom deze grote God van Liefde.

 ... 

Op deze belangrijke dag 
Slaapt Emmanuel
Duizend goddelijke engelen, duizend serafijnen
zweven rondom deze grote God van Liefde.
