Christmas Must Be Tonight
Robbie Robertson
Come down to the manger, see the little stranger
Wrapped and swaddled, oh the prince of peace
The wheels start turning, torches start burning
Behold the wise men, who journey from the east
How a little baby boy brought the people so much joy
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
A shepherd on a hillside, over my flock I bide
On a cold winter night, a band of Angels sing
In a dream I heard a voice said, "Fear not, come rejoice
It's the end of the beginning, just praise the new born King"
How a little baby boy brought the people so much joy
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
Saw it with my own eyes, written up in the skies
Why a simple herdsmen such as I
And then it came to pass, he was born at last
Right below the star that shines on high
How that little baby boy brought the people so much joy
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
Come down to the manger, see the little stranger
Scendi fino alla mangiatoia, vedi il piccolo straniero
Wrapped and swaddled, oh the prince of peace
Avvolto e fasciato, oh il principe della pace
The wheels start turning, torches start burning
Le ruote iniziano a girare, le torce iniziano a bruciare
Behold the wise men, who journey from the east
Ecco i magi, che viaggiano dall'est
How a little baby boy brought the people so much joy
Come un piccolo bambino ha portato tanta gioia alla gente
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
Figlio di un falegname, Maria portava la luce
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
Questo deve essere Natale, deve essere stasera
A shepherd on a hillside, over my flock I bide
Un pastore su un pendio, sopra il mio gregge mi attardo
On a cold winter night, a band of Angels sing
In una fredda notte invernale, un coro di Angeli canta
In a dream I heard a voice said, "Fear not, come rejoice
In un sogno ho sentito una voce che diceva, "Non temere, vieni a gioire
It's the end of the beginning, just praise the new born King"
È la fine dell'inizio, loda solo il Re appena nato"
How a little baby boy brought the people so much joy
Come un piccolo bambino ha portato tanta gioia alla gente
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
Figlio di un falegname, Maria portava la luce
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
Questo deve essere Natale, deve essere stasera
Saw it with my own eyes, written up in the skies
L'ho visto con i miei occhi, scritto nel cielo
Why a simple herdsmen such as I
Perché un semplice pastore come me
And then it came to pass, he was born at last
E poi è avvenuto, è nato finalmente
Right below the star that shines on high
Proprio sotto la stella che brilla in alto
How that little baby boy brought the people so much joy
Come quel piccolo bambino ha portato tanta gioia alla gente
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
Figlio di un falegname, Maria portava la luce
