The Christmas Song (There's a Song in the Air)

There's a song in the air! There's a star in the sky!
There's a mother's deep prayer and a baby's low cry!
And the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!

There's a tumult of joy over the wonderful birth,
For the virgin's sweet boy is the Lord of the earth.
Ay! the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!

In the light of that star lie the ages impearled;
And that song from afar has swept over the world.
Every hearth is aflame, and the beautiful sing
In the homes of the nations that Jesus is King!

We rejoice in the light, and we echo the song
That comes down through the night from the heavenly throng.
Ay! we shout to the lovely evangel they bring,
And we greet in His cradle our Savior and King!

(The Christmas Song)

Kiyoki shirabe, sora ni kikoe,
Miko no Haha wa, inori-tamo.
Mabune no Kimi wo, home-matsuru,
Kusushiki hoshi no, hikari ari.

Midorigo koso, Shu ni imase to,
Yorokobu koe, chi ni kodama shi,
Mabune no Kimi wo, home-matsuru,
Kusushiki hoshi no, hikari ari.

Towa no hikari, hoshi ni yadori,
Tae-naru uta, nagaruru toki,
Izuko no ie mo, doyomekinu,
Sukui no kimi wa, kimaseri to.

Amatsu uta ni, shirabe awase,
Hoshi to tomoni, Kimi wo utawan.
Ureshiki shirase, yo ni kitaru,
Aganai no Shu wo, iza ya homen!
