My wife wanted to know the lyrics for "Do You Hear What I Hear?" - so, of course, I looked in the Digital Tradition. The song, filename[ DOTOUHER, is a bit discombobulated:Here's the DT Version: DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR Do you hear what I hear, said the night wind to the little lamb Do you hear what I hear, high up in the sky `little lamb A song, a song, high above the trees With a voice as big as the sea, with a voice as big as the sea. Do you see what I see, said the little lamb to the shepherd boy Do you see what I see, high up In the sky shepherd boy? A star, a star, shining in the night With a tall as big as a kite, with a tail as big as a kite. Do you know what I know, said the shepherd boy to the mighty king Do you know what I know, In your palace warm mighty king? A child, a child shivers in the cold, Let us bring him silver and gold, let us bring him silver and gold. Listen to what I say, said the king to the people everywhere Listen to what I say, pray for peace, people everywhere, The child the child, sleeping in the night He will bring us goodness and light, He will bring us goodness and light. @seasonal @Xmas filename[ DOTOUHER RG APR99
Corrected Version: DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR? (Noel Regney and Gloria Shayne) 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 tree, 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 ev'rywhere: Listen to what I say! Pray for peace, people ev'rywhere, 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. (Noel Regney and Gloria Shayne, copyright 1962)
