1. The first Nowell the angel 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.
Refrain: Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell,
born is the King of Israel.
2.They 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. Refrain
