Do You Hear What I Hear? Lyrics by Pink Martini

Do You Hear What I Hear?

Said the night wind to the little lamb
"Do you see what I see
Way up in the sky, little lamb
Do you see what I see
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite"

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
"Do you hear what I hear
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear
A song, a song high above the trees
With a voice as big as the sea
With a voice as big as the sea"

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king
"Do you know what I know
In your palace warm, mighty king
Do you know what I know
A child, a child shivers in the cold
Let us bring him silver and gold
Let us bring him silver and gold"

Said the king to the people everywhere
"Listen to what I say
Pray for peace, people, everywhere
Listen to what I say
The child, the child sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light"

Do you hear what I hear
Do you hear what I hear
Do you hear what I hear
