- (*) The word Hark! or Hush is sometimes substituted for Ah!
- Alternate Lyrics:
- Bring a torch, Jeannette, Isabelle!
- Bring a torch to the cradle run!
- It is Jesus, good folk of the village;
- Christ is born and Mary's calling:
- Ah! ah! beautiful is the mother!
- Ah! ah! beautiful is her Son!
- It is wrong when the Child is sleeping
- It is wrong to talk so loud;
- Silence, all, as you gather around,
- Lest your noise should waken Jesus:
- Hush! hush! see how fast He slumbers:
- Hush! hush! see how fast He sleeps!
- Softly to the little stable,
- Softly for the moment come;
- Look and see how charming is Jesus,
- See how He smiles, Oh see how rosy!
- Hush! hush! see how the Child is sleeping;
- Hush! hush! see how He smiles in dreams.
