Clear in the darkness, a light shines in BethlehemAngels are singing, their sound fills the airWise men have journeyed to greet their MessiahBut only a mother and baby lie there
Ave Maria, ave MariaHear the soft lullaby the angel hosts singAve Maria, ave MariaMaiden and mother of Jesus our King.
Where are his courtiers and who are his people?
Why does he bear neither sceptre nor crown?
Shepherds his courtiers, the poor for his people
With peace as his sceptre and love for his crown.
Ave Maria, ave Maria
Hear the soft lullaby the angel hosts sing
Ave Maria, ave Maria
Maiden, and mother of Jesus our King.
What though your treasures are not gold or incense?Lay them before him with hearts full of lovePraise to the Christ child, and praise to his motherWho bore us a Saviour by grace from above.
Ave Maria, ave Maria
Hear the soft lullaby the angel hosts sing
Ave Maria, ave Maria
Maiden, and mother of Jesus our King.

Sopra Betlemme un bagliore divino
squarcia la notte e rischiara la via
guida il viandante là dove un bambino
riposa abbracciando sua madre Maria
Ave Maria, ave Maria
un coro angelico intona lassù
Ave Maria, ave Maria:
la Ninna Nanna per Cristo Gesù
Re senza regno né scettro regale
sudditi, trono, corona non ha
ci porta in dono un messaggio immortale
di pace d’amore e di carità
Ave Maria, ave Maria
un coro angelico intona lassù
Ave Maria, ave Maria:
la Ninna Nanna per Cristo Gesù
Madre santissima presso al tuo seno
dorme pacifico il nostro Messia;
tra le tue braccia riposa sereno
cullato alle note d’una melodia
Ave Maria, ave Maria
un coro angelico intona lassù
Ave Maria, ave Maria:
la Ninna Nanna per Cristo Gesù.
