《Bethlehem Down》歌词

[00:00:00] Bethlehem Down - Voces8 (人声八重唱团)/Nigel Short (尼格尔·肖特)

[00:00:02] When he is king we will give him a king's gifts

[00:00:17] Myrrh for its sweetness and gold for a crown

[00:00:33] Beautiful robes said the young girl to joseph

[00:00:48] Fair with her first-born on bethlehem down

[00:01:06] Bethlehem down is full of the starlight

[00:01:21] Winds for the spices and stars for the gold

[00:01:37] Mary for sleep and for lullaby music

[00:01:52] Songs of a shepherd by bethlehem fold

[00:02:09] When he is king they will clothe him in grave-sheets

[00:02:24] Myrrh for embalming and wood for a crown

[00:02:37] He that lies now in the white arms of mary

[00:02:54] Sleeping so lightly on bethlehem down

[00:03:11] Here he has peace and a short while for dreaming

[00:03:28] Close-huddled oxen to keep him from cold

[00:03:44] Mary for love and for lullaby music

[00:04:03] Songs of a shepherd by bethlehem down
