Oíche chiúin, oíche Mhic Dé,
Cach 'na suan, dís araon,
Dís is dílse 'faire le spéis,
Naíon beag gnaoigheal ceananntais caomh,
Críost, 'na chodhladh go seimh,
Críost, 'na chodhladh go seimh.
Oíche chiúin, oíche Mhic Dé,
Aoirí ar dtús chuala 'n scéal,
Allelúia aingeal ag glaoch,
Cantain suairc i ngar is i gcein,
Críost an Slánaitheoir Fein,
Críost an Slánaitheoir Fein.
Oíche chiúin, oíche Mhic De,
Cach 'na suan, dís araon,
Dis is dílse 'faire le spéis,
Naion beag gnaoigheal ceananntais caomh,
Críost, 'na chodhladh go seimh,
Críost, 'na chodhladh go seimh.
Silent Night♥
Silent night, night of God's son,
Everyone is asleep, the pair together.
The most faithful pair, watching with hope
A little baby, a mild and gentle child.
Christ, calmly asleep.
Christ, calmly asleep.
Silent night, night of God's son,
Shepherds were first to hear the tale.
The angels crying out Alleluia.
Lovely chanting near and far.
Christ, the saviour himself.
Christ, the saviour himself.

"Silent Night" (German: Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht) is a popular Christmas carol. The original lyrics of the song Stille Nacht were written in German by the Austrian priest Father Josef Mohr and the melody was composed by the Austrian headmaster Franz Xaver Gruber. In 1859, John Freeman Young published the English translation that is most frequently sung today. The version of the melody that is generally sung today differs slightly (particularly in the final strain) from Gruber's original. Today, the lyrics and melody are in the public domain.
