He is born, the divine Child,
Play, oboe, resonate, bagpipes;
He is born, the divine Child;
Let us all sing his advent!
For more than four thousand years,
The Prophets promised us;
For more than four thousand years,
We were waiting for this happy time.
He is born, the divine Child...
Ah! that he is handsome, that he is charming,
How perfect are his graces!
Ah! that he is handsome, that he is charming,
How sweet is the divine Child!
He is born, the divine Child...
A stable is his dwelling,
A bit of straw, his berth,
A stable is his dwelling,
For a God, what abasement!
He is born, the divine Child...
O Jesus! O Almighty King!
Tiny child that you are,
O Jesus! O Almighty King!
Rule over us completely!
He is born, the divine Child...
