钢琴谱：The First Noel-Christmas Song

The First Nowell (also written The First Noël) is a traditional classical English carol, most likely from the 18th century, although possibly earlier. The word Noel comes from the French word Noël meaning "Christmas", from the Latin word natalis "birthday". In its current form it is of Cornish origin, and it was first published in Carols Ancient and Modern (1823) and Gilbert and Sandys Carols (1833), both of which were edited by William B. Sandys and arranged, edited and with extra lyrics written by Davies Gilbert Hymns and Carols of God. Today, it is usually performed in a four-part hymn arrangement by the English composer John Stainer, first published in his Carols, New and Old of 1871. The melody of The First Nowell is unusual among English folk melodies in that it consists of one musical phrase repeated twice, followed by a refrain which is a variation on that phrase. All three phrases end on the third of the scale. It is thought to be a version of an earlier melody sung in a church gallery setting "The First O Well"; a conjectural reconstruction of this earlier version can be found in the New Oxford Book of Carols. "The First Nowell" is well known by people and if you like it, you can also download free The First Nowell sheet music to play with Everyone Piano. Just Enjoy It! The Lyrics of "The First Noel": CHORUS: The first Noel the Angels did say Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay In fields where they lay keeping their sheep On a cold winters night that was so deep. Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel   VERSE1: 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 Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel   (The following 4 verses are not sung on the Boney M version)   And by the light of that same star Three wise men came from country far; To seek for a king was their intent, And to follow the star wherever it went.  (CHORUS)   This star drew nigh to the northwest, Oer Bethlehem it took it rest, And there it did both stop and stay Right over the place where Jesus lay.  (CHORUS)   Then entered in those wise men three Full reverently upon their knee, and offered there in his presence Their gold, and myrrh, and frakincense.  (CHORUS)   Then let us all with one accord Sing praises to our heavenly Lord; That hath made heaven and earth of naught,  And with his blood mankind hath bought.  (CHORUS)   The first Noel the Angels did say Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay In fields where they lay keeping their sheep On a cold winters night that was so deep. Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel
