Entre le bœuf et l'âne gris
Language: French (Français)
Entre le bœuf et l’âne gris Dort, dort, dort le petit fils Mille anges divins, mille séraphins Volent à l’entour de [ce grand dieu]1 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 grand dieu]1 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 grand dieu]1 d’amour. Entre les pastoureaux jolis Dort, dort, Jésus qui sourit Mille anges divins, mille séraphins Volent à l’entour de [ce grand dieu]1 d’amour. En ce beau jour si solennel Dort, dort, dort l’Emmanuel Mille anges divins, mille séraphins Volent à l’entour de [ce grand dieu]1 d’amour.

Heinillä härkien kaukalon
Language: Finnish (Suomi) after the French (Français)
Heinillä härkien kaukalon nukkuu lapsi viaton. Enkelparven tie kohta luokse vie rakkautta suurinta katsomaan. Helmassa äitinsä armahan nukkuu Poika Jumalan. Enkelparven tie kohta luokse vie rakkautta suurinta katsomaan. Keskellä liljain ja ruusujen nukkuu Herra ihmisten. Enkelparven tie kohta luokse vie rakkautta suurinta katsomaan. [...] Ristillä rinnalla ryövärin nukkuu uhri puhtahin. Enkelparven tie kohta luokse vie rakkautta suurinta katsomaan.
