Andrea Bocelli, Matteo Bocelli & Virginia Bocelli Lyrics

"Do You Hear What I Hear?"
(originally by Harry Simeone)

Said the night wind to the little lamb

Do you see what I see
Do you see what I see

Way up in the sky, little lamb

Do you see what I see
Do you see what I see

A star, a star, dancing in the night

With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy

Do you hear what I hear
Do you hear what I hear

Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy

Do you hear what I hear
Do you hear what I hear

A song, a song high above the trees

With a voice as big as the sea
With a voice as big as the sea

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king

Do you know what I know
Do you know what I know

In your palace warm, mighty king

Do you know what I know
Do you know what I know

A Child, a Child shivers in the cold

Let us bring him silver and gold
Let us bring him silver and gold
Said the king to the people everywhere
Listen to what I say
Listen to what I say

Pray for peace, people, everywhere

Listen to what I say
Listen to what I say

The Child, the Child sleeping in the night

He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light

Do you hear what I hear

Andrea Bocelli, Matteo Bocelli & Virginia Bocelli Lyrics

"Away In A Manger"
(originally by William James Kirkpatrick)

Away in a manger
No crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus
Lay down His sweet head

The stars in the sky

Look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing

The poor baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus
No crying He makes

I love Thee, Lord Jesus

Look down from the sky
And stay by my side
'Til morning is nigh

Be near me, Lord Jesus

I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray

Bless all the dear children

In Thy tender care
And take us to heaven
To live with Thee there

Take us to heaven
To live with Thee there
"Feliz Navidad"
(originally by José Feliciano)

I wanna wish you

From the bottom of my heart

"The First Noël"

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 that was so deep

Noël, Noël, Noël, Noël

Born is the King of Israel

The shepherds looked up and saw a star

Shining in the east beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night

Noël, Noël, Noël, Noël

Born is the King of Israel

Noël, Noël, Noël, Noël

Born is the King
Born is the King
Born is the King of Israel

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"

(originally by Judy Garland)

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Let your heart be light
From now on your troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Make the yuletide gay
From now on your troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days

Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we'll always be together

If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Faithful friends who are dear to us

Gather near to us once more

Through the years we'll always be together

If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now

"Over The Rainbow"

(originally by Judy Garland)

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high

There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me (Behind me)
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly

Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh, why can't I?
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh, why can't I?

"Buon Natale"
(originally by Gino Bechi)

Dicembre, odore di castagne per le strade

Fa freddo e il vento va dicendo nei camini
Almeno questa notte
Dimentichiamo il male

Buon natale a tutto il mondo

Che stanotte veglierà
Buon natale sotto la neve
Ogni casa risplenderà

Se a te nessuno
Stanotte vicino sarà
Da te la mia voce verrà

Buon natale a tutto il mondo

Buon natale con tutto il cuore

Se a te nessuno
Stanotte vicino sarà
Da te la mia voce verrà

Buon natale a tutto il mondo

Buon natale con tutto il cuore

Buon natale con tutto il cuore

English Lyrics to Merry Christmas To All The World

December
smell of chestnuts in the streets
eheheh
It's cold and the wind is saying in the fireplaces
at least this night
forget the bad
Merry Christmas to all the world
it will watch tonight
Merry Christmas
under the snow
each house will shine
If any of you
tonight will be near
you will be my voice
Merry Christmas to all the world
Merry Christmas with all my heart
If any of you
tonight will be near
you will be my voice
Merry Christmas to all the world
Merry Christmas with all my heart
Merry Christmas to all the world

"Joy To The World"

Joy to the world, the Lord is come

Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven, and heaven and nature sing

He rules the world, with truth and grace

And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders of His love

Joy to the world, the Lord is come

Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven, and heaven and nature sing

Joy to the world, the Lord is come

Joy to the world, the Lord is come
Joy to the world, the Lord is come

"The Greatest Gift"

Come and lay your head upon my shoulder

Look outside the stars are shining bright
Even though it's turned a little colder
We can light a fire, stay inside

Hear the angels sing

Hear the angels sing
Hallelujah from above
Singing peace on earth
There'll be peace on earth
If we open up our hearts
And give a little love
The greatest gift is love

Gather friends and family 'round the table

Remember those we love no longer here
Together take a moment and be grateful
For the joy, for the tears

Hear the angels sing

Hear the angels sing
Hallelujah from above
Singing peace on earth
There'll be peace on earth
If we open up our hearts
And give a little love
And give a little love
And give a little love

Hear the angels sing

Hear the angels sing
Hallelujah from above
Singing peace on earth
There'll be peace on earth
If we open up our hearts
And give a little love

Hear the angels sing

A Hallelujah from above

Hear the angels sing

Hear the angels sing
Hallelujah from above
Singing peace on earth
There'll be peace on earth
If we open up our hearts
And give a little love

A Hallelujah from above

The greatest gift is love

"When Christmas Comes To Town"

(originally by Matthew Hall & Meagan Moore)

I'm wishing on a star

And trying to believe
That even thought it's far
He'll find me Christmas Eve
I guess that Santa's busy
'Cause he's never come around
I think of him when Christmas comes to town

The best time of the year

When everyone comes home
With all this Christmas cheer
It's hard to be alone
Putting up the Christmas tree
With friends that come around
It's so much fun when Christmas comes to town

Presents for the children wrapped in red and green

All the things I've heard about but never really seen
No one will be sleeping on the night of Christmas Eve
Hoping Santa's on his way

Presents for the children wrapped in red and green

All the things I've heard about but never really seen
No one will be sleeping on the night of Christmas Eve
Hoping Santa's on his way

When Santa's sleight bells ring

I listen all around
The herald angels sing
I never hear a sound

And all the dreams of the children

Once lost will all be found
That's all I want when Christmas comes to town
That's all I want when Christmas comes to town

"Happy Xmas (War Is Over)"

(originally by John Lennon)

So this is Christmas and what have you done?

Another year over, a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas, I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one, the old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas, for weak and for strong

(War is over if you want it)
For the rich and the poor ones, the road is so long
(War is over now)
And so happy Christmas for black and for white
(War is over if you want it)
For the left and for right ones, let's stop all the fight
(War is over now)
A very merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas, and what have we done?

(War is over if you want it)
Another year over, a new one just begun
(War is over now)
And so happy Christmas, we hope you have fun
(War is over if you want it)
The near and the dear one, the old and the young
(War is over now)
A very merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas, and what have we done?

(War is over if you want it)
Another year over, a new one just begun
(War is over now)

"Il Giorno Più Speciale"

Quante finestre colorate

Bianche le strade illuminate
C'è qualcosa nell'aria
Di speciale che ti cambia
E ti riaccende il cuore

In ogni parte del mondo

Ogni lingua ogni volto
Non servono parole
Per spiegare cos'è
Per sentirne il senso e il calore

Delle note lontane

Una canzone da cantare
Il giorno di Natale

Il giorno più speciale

Che puoi immaginare

Idea di pace e di uguaglianza

Prego nel tempo che si ferma

A Natale scriverò
Una lettera che vola
Sì però raccontami
Ancora quella storia
Di una stella che appare
Su nel cielo per guidare
In mezzo al freddo e il gelo

Il giorno più speciale

Che puoi immaginare

Una semplice canzone

Da cantare tutti insieme
Dedicata anche a te

Una semplice canzone

Un augurio d'ogni bene

Dedicata a te
A chi ami e a chi non c'è

Il giorno più speciale

Il giorno di Natale

"The Most Special Day"

How many colored windows

The illuminated streets are white
There is something in the air
Special that changes you
And it rekindles your heart

In every part of the world

Every language every face
No words are needed
To explain what it is
To feel its sense and warmth

Distant notes
A song to sing
Christmas Day

The most special day

You can imagine

Idea of peace and equality

I pray in time that stops

I will write at Christmas

A letter that flies
Yes but tell me
That story again

Of a star that appears

Up in the sky to drive
In the midst of the cold and frost

The most special day

You can imagine

A simple song
To sing all together
Also dedicated to you

A simple song
A wish for all good

Dedicated to you
To those you love and to those who are not there

The most special day

Christmas Day

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"

(originally by Bing Crosby)

I'll be home for Christmas

You can plan on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents by the tree
Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

I'll be home for Christmas

You can plan on me
Please have some snow and mistletoe
And presents by the tree
Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
If only in my dreams
