Urs:
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.

David:
Long lay the world in sin and error pining.
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.

Carlos:
A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.

Sébastien:
Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, oh night when Christ was born;

Urs:
O night divine, oh night oh night divine.

O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.

Carlos:
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,

Sébastien:
Let all within us praise His holy name.

Christ is the Lord,
Let everyone in grateful chorus raise we (not sure about this part)
O night, o night
O night, o night divine
O night, divine, o night

. . .



Sébastien:
I'm dreaming of a White Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know

Carlos:
Where the treetops glisten
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.

Urs:
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write

David:
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.

Oh, blanca navidad, sueño
y con la nieve alrededor

Urs:
blanca es mi quimera
y es mensajera

Sébastien:
de paz, y de puro amor

Carlos:
Oh, blanca navidad, nieve
una esperanza y un cantar
recordar tu infancia podrás

. . .



Urs:
Ave Maria! Vergin del ciel
sovrana di grazie e madre pia

David:
che accogli ognor la fervente preghiera,
non negar a questo straziato mio cuor
tregua al suo dolor!

Sébastien:
Sperduta l'almamia si prosta a te
e pien di speme si prosta ai tuoi piè,

Carlos:
t'invoca e attende che tu le dia
la pace che solo tu puoi donar
Ave Maria!

Urs:
Ave Maria Gratia plena

Sébastien:
Maria Gratia plena
Maria Gratia plena

Carlos:
Ave, ave dominus
Dominus tecum

Sébastien:
Sperduta l'almamia si prosta a te

Urs:
e pien di speme si prosta ai tuoi piè,

Carlos:
t'invoca e attende che tu le dia

David:
la pace che solo tu puoi donar

Ave Maria!
Ave Maria Gratia plena
Ave, ave dominus
Ave Maria!

English translation:
Hail Mary, maiden of heaven, sovreign of grace and Pious Mother accept every
hour a fervent prayer.

Do not deny to my lost heart to tremble in its pain.

Lost, my soul turns to you and full of hope it prostrates itself at your feet.

It invokes and awaits for the beautiful peace that only You can give it.

Hail Mary, full of grace, Mary, full of grace x 2. Hail mother of the Lord.

The Lord be with thee. Thou [art] blessed amongst all women and blessed [are]

. . .



Sébastien:
A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high

Urs:
All across the land dawns a brand new morn',
This comes to pass when a child is born.

Carlos:
A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds of change whisper in the trees

David:
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn,
This comes to pass when a child is born.

It's all a dream, an illusion now.
It must come true some time soon somehow
All across the land dawns a brand new morn',
This comes to pass when a child is born.

. . .



Sébastien:
O Come All Ye Faithful
Joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem.

David, Carlos, Urs:
Come and behold Him,
Born the King of Angels;

Urs:
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.

Carlos:
Adeste fideles,
laeti triumphantes,
Venite, venite in Bethlehem!

David:
Natum videte,
Regem angelorum

Sébastien:
Venite adoremus,

Urs:
Venite adoremus,

Carlos:
Venite adoremus
Dominum.

Adeste fideles,
laeti triumphantes,
Venite, venite in Bethlehem!

Natum videte,
Regem angelorum
Venite adoremus,
Venite adoremus,
Venite adoremus

. . .



Urs:
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.

David:
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Sébastien:
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.

Carlos:
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Urs:
Some day I'll wish upon a star

Sébastien & Carlos:
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.

David:
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops

Carlos:
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream

. . .



Sébastien:
Panis Angelicus
fit panis hominum

Urs:
Dat panis coelicus figuris terminum

David:
O res mirabilis!
Manducat Dominum

Carlos:
pauper pauper servus et humilis

David:
pauper pauper servus et humilis

Carlos:
Panis Angelicus
fit panis hominum
Dat panis coelicus figuris terminum

David:
O res mirabilis!
Manducat Dominum

Sébastien:
pauper pauper servus et humilis

Carlos:

. . .



Sébastien:
Where did I misplace my faith?
Where did I set it down?
Which one, the day that I forgot what this was all about?

David:
And I came so close to throwing it all away,
But I'm taking it back again.
So come and rejoice,
Come and rejoice.
What was lost, is found.

Carlos:
Cual es el dia en que olvide
Mi fe y mi sentir,
Mi vida fue un sinvivir
La quiero compartir.
(translation: Which is the day in which I forgot
my faith and my feel,
my life was without-living
i want to share it...)

David:
Llegue a pensar
Dejar todo y olvidar,
Pero vuelvo a empezar.

(translation: I started to think
to leave everything and forget,
but i return to begin.)

Urs:
So come and rejoice,
Come and rejoice.

Sébastien:
And you don't even have to make a sound.

Urs:
I feel it in your touch, you say it with your eyes.

Sébastien:
What was lost, is found.

So come and rejoice,
Come and rejoice.
What was lost, is found.

Urs:
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright

Sébastien:
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild

David:
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Carlos & Urs:
Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight

Sébastien:
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!

David:
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace

Sébastien:

. . .



Sébastien:
Our Father, which Art in Heaven
Hallowed be, Thy name

Carlos:
Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done

David:
On earth, as it is, in Heaven

Give us this day, our daily bread

Urs:
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors

David:
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil

Carlos:
For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory forever
