Fu ferlusu wi ala fu da sondu pe
A ben gebore in' wan poti stal
Pe kaw nanga skapu ben sribi en tan
Furu suma ben kon fu luku da manpikin
Ma no wan suma ben sabi da reti en da krin
Heymel en aarde sa preyse Yu nem
Grantangi mi Gado, Kownu fu alatem
Carla Fitz-James
CHRISTMAS EVE
In the cold and lonely night
A wonderful thing happened
Only by God's grace and might
You were born in a manger of hay
You had not even a place to sleep or to stay
Angels and wise men came to worship you
But no one knew the road before you
You were sleeping in a poor and broken crib
Wrapped up in swaddling-bands, not knowing of any gift
There was no room to stay in that special night
Today also, there's no room for You in the hearts of mankind.
