Subject: RE: chords/lyrics to O Holy Night please
Tressaille- to thrill. l'Homme Dieu is better as son of God.
Direct translation always yields a batch of approximations, not making complete sense in either language and either very dull or comical.
Usually it is better just to set new lyrics to the tune, perhaps keeping the central idea, perhaps doing something tangential.
