2. Une Petite Étoile
1. Une petite étoile est née,
Petite étoile de Judée.
Elle a illuminé le ciel,
Chantons lenfant qui nous est né.
Noël, Noël, éclaire-moi,
Cloches en chœur, sonnez la joie
Et quà travers toute la terre,
La paix inonde lunivers.
2. Une petite étoile est née,
Mon cœur sest mis à espérer
Que la haine et lindifférence
Seront vaincues par lespérance
Noël, Noël, éclaire-moi,
Cloches en chœur, sonnez la joie
Et quà travers toute la terre,
La paix inonde lunivers.
3. Une petite étoile est née,
Nos larmes ont cessé de couler,
Car Dieu nous a fait le cadeau
Dun fant que je vois si beau.
Noël, Noël, éclaire-moi,
Cloches en chœur, sonnez la joie
Et quà travers toute la terre,
La paix inonde lunivers.
