It came upon the midnight clear, that glorious song of old It came upon the midnight clear, that glorious song of old uma gloriosa canção antiga chegou logo depois da claridade da meia noite From angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold From angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold por anjos abençoando a terra e tocando suas harpas de ouro Peace on the earth, goodwill to men, from heav'n's all gracious king Peace on the earth, goodwill to men, from heav'n's all gracious king paz na terra, boa vontade aos homens, todas as graças reais dos ceus The world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing. The world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing. o mundo solenemente silencioso deixando ouvir os anjos cantarem Still through the cloven skies they come with peaceful wings unfurl Still through the cloven skies they come with peaceful wings unfurl embora os ceus ainda estivessem rachados eles vieram pacificamente com suas asas desfraldadas And still their heavenly music floats, O'er all the weary world. And still their heavenly music floats, O'er all the weary world. e ainda com sua musica flutuando, sobre todo o mundo fatigado Above its sad and lowly plains they bend on hovering wing Above its sad and lowly plains they bend on hovering wing em cima eles tinham tristes e humildes planos curvando e pairando suas asas And ever o'er its Babel sounds the blessed angels sing. And ever o'er its Babel sounds the blessed angels sing. e sempre sobre seus sons de Babel os anjos abençoados cantam O ye, beneath life's crushing load, whose forms are bending low O ye, beneath life's crushing load, whose forms are bending low suas formas estão curvadas humildemente embaixo das vidas daqueles que estão esmafgados pela carga Who toil along the climbing way with painful steps and slow Who toil along the climbing way with painful steps and slow que trabalham ao longo do dia nublado devagar e com pes cansados Look now for glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wing Look now for glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wing olhando agora para as horas de dourada alegria trazidas agora pelas asas O rest beside the weary road and hear the angels sing. O rest beside the weary road and hear the angels sing. todos os fatigados da estrada olhando para os anjos cantando For lo the days are hastening on, by prophets seen of old For lo the days are hastening on, by prophets seen of old os profetas vendo os velhos estão agilizando dos dias para eles When with the ever circling years shall come the time foretold When with the ever circling years shall come the time foretold quando com o ciclo dos anos sempre aparece o tempo predito When the new heaven and earth shall own the prince of peace their King When the new heaven and earth shall own the prince of peace their King quando o nove ceu e terra enconrarem seu principe da paz e seu Rei And the whole world send back the song which now the angels sing. And the whole world send back the song which now the angels sing. e todo o mundo for mandado de volta para onde agora os anjos cantam
