Текст песни December Child (Gretchen Peters) с переводом

What babe is this who cries no tears?

Who brought you forth, who laid you here?

A little child, a tiny thing

How can it be they call you king?

A baby in a manger born

So early on a Christmas morn

The angels sang, the heavens smiled

And here you are, December child

December child, so full of grace

So humbly born, so highly praised

They bring you gifts, they follow stars

They say they know who you really are

But you are still your mother’s son

They say you are the Chosen One

The kings and queens, the rank and file

All know your name, December child

While the shepherds watch they’re keeping

We lie sleeping

December child, the world awaits

And soon enough you’ll meet your fate

Your mother’s arms will soon grow cold

And yearn for her sweet babe to hold

And all the world, in all its need

Will soon be pulling at your sleeve

So give her time, a little while

And go to sleep, December child
