Quanno nascette Ninno a Bettalemme | |||
Era notte, e pareva miezo juorno. | |||
Maje le stelle - lustre e belle | |||
Se vedetteno accussì: | |||
'a cchiù lucente | |||
Jett'a chiammà li Magge a l'Urïente. | |||
De pressa se scetajeno l'aucielle | |||
Cantanno de 'na forma tutta nova. | |||
Pe' 'nsi' 'e grille - co' li strille | |||
E zombanno a ccà e a llà; | |||
È nato, è nato, | |||
Decevano, lu Dio che nc'à crïato. | |||
No' nc'erano nemmice pe' la terra, | |||
La pecora pasciva co' [lu] lione; | |||
Co' 'o crapette - se vedette | |||
'O liupardo pazzïà; | |||
L'urz' e 'o vitiello | |||
E co' lu lupo 'n pace 'o pecoriello. | |||
Se rrevotaje 'nsomma tutt' 'o Munno, | |||
Lu cielo, 'a terra, 'o mare, e tutt'i gente. | |||
Chi dormeva - se senteva | |||
'N piett' 'o core pazzïà | |||
Pe' la prïezza; | |||
E se sonnava pace e contentezza. | |||
Guardavano le pecore 'e Pasturi, | |||
E 'n Angelo sbrennente cchiù d'o sole | |||
Comparette - e le decette: | |||
No[n] ve spaventate no; | |||
Contento e riso, | |||
La terra è arreventata Paraviso. | |||
A buje è nato ogge a Bettalemme | |||
D' 'u Munno l'aspettato Sarvatore. | |||
Dint'i panni 'o trovarrite, | |||
Nu potite - maje sgarrà, | |||
Arravugliato, | |||
E dinto a lu Presebio cur[ë]cato.}} | |||

{{Translation|English| | |||
When the Infant Jesus was born in Bethlehem, | |||
It was night but it looked like noon. | |||
Never the stars - so brilliant and beautiful, | |||
Were so visible: | |||
The most sparkling | |||
Went to summon the Wise Men in the East. | |||
Quickly the birds awoke | |||
Singing in a completely new way. | |||
Even the crickets - with their screeches | |||
And hopping here and there; | |||
He is born, he is born, | |||
they said, the God who made us all. | |||
There were no enemies on earth: | |||
The sheep pastured with the lion, | |||
The leopard - was seen | |||
Playing with the kid, | |||
The bear with the calf | |||
And the wolf with the lamb were in peace. | |||
So, the World was messed up, | |||
The sky, the earth, the sea, all the people. | |||
Who was sleeping - kept feeling | |||
his heart beating wildly in his chest | |||
for the happiness; | |||
and peace and jollity sounded in the air. | |||
The Shepherds were watching their sheep | |||
And an angel, more resplendent than the sun, | |||
Appeared - and told them: | |||
Don’t be afraid, no; | |||
Happiness and laughter, | |||
Earth has become Paradise. | |||
In the dark today is born in Bethlehem | |||
The awaited Savior of the World. | |||
You will found him in swaddling clothes, | |||
You can - never mistake, | |||
Wrapped, | |||
And in a manger laid.}} | |||
