Un Enfant De Toi Pour Noël

When the time of cold and frost comes
I would like to find this gift
In a white cradle, like a cherub
A child from you for Christmas

Rose and wonderful, so small and frail
Innocently sleeping under the green tree
To be the heart of our universe
A child from you for Christmas

A child from you, from us
Dreamed together
Conceived together
Girl or boy
What does it matter, after all?

Coming out of your heavy and maternal womb
To make the light spring in our hearts
Blood of our blood, flesh of our flesh
A child from you for Christmas

Fruit of our hopes, sent from heaven
To give meaning to the course of our days
At the cost of our joys, in the name of love
A child from you for Christmas
