Linda noite de Natal

Lyrics - Portuguese

(Folk song from Portugal)

Linda noite de Natal,
Noite de grande alegria.
Caminhava São José
Mais a sagrada Maria.

Refrain
Linda noite, linda noite,
Linda noite de Natal.
Linda noite, linda noite,
Linda noite de Natal.

Bateram a muitas portas
Mas ninguém lhes acudia,
Foram dar a uma choupana
Onde o boi bento dormia. Refrain

São José foi buscar lume,
ficou rezando Maria,
Mas quando José voltou,
já o Menino dormia. Refrain

English Translation – Beautiful Christmas Eve

Beautiful Christmas Eve,
Night of great joy.
San Jose was walking
With the holy Mary.

Refrain
Beautiful night, beautiful night,
Beautiful Christmas night.
Beautiful night, beautiful night,
Beautiful Christmas night.

They knocked on many doors
But no one helped them,
They went to a shack
Where the blessed ox slept. Refrain

St. Joseph went to fetch fire,
Mary kept praying,
But when Joseph returned,
The boy already slept. Refrain
