Villancicos - The First Noel

The first Noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night lat was so deep

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

They looked up and saw a star
Shinning in the East beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued day and night

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

This star drew nigh to the northwest
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest
And there it did both stop and stay
Right o'er the place where Jesus lay

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
