O Silent Bells Ring Joyfully
The brightest of all stars
has appeared in the winter
clear but frozen sky to amaze us!
O silent bells ring joyfully
and announce to all men
the wonderful birth
of a divine infant with tender
eyes; look at him: he's so human
and He's the heavenly
King the angels declare,
making Herod tremble as
he hears their glorious songs of mirth!
O silent bells ring joyfully,
in the blue Heavens
the biggest star is gliding;
this night is too quite chilly
while the shepherds
watch their sheep on the hills
of Bethlehem and they notice that the stars
have little brightness,
but this star has is very bright and clear!
And they wonder, " Why does such
a night of splendor draw Heaven so near? "
The Angel of the lord will
surprise them and tell
them that the awaited King has finally come:
a big star will lead them
to a manger in Bethlehem,
then the dark road the brighter will become!
O silent bells ring joyfully
and echo in every distant valley
to cheer up the hopeless world
that has a new sight to behold!
