The holidays are a great time of year! So I figured getting to know some Christmas Carols in Japanese would be a good thing. Right?
Here are the lyrics to some Christmas carols in Japanese for you.
Silent Night:
Kono yoru kiyoshi, hoshi wa hikari,
Sukui no miko wa, Ni mabune no naka,
Nemuri-tamo, Ito yasuku.
Kono yoru kiyoshi, Mitsuge ukeshi,
Maki-bito tachi wa, no miko mimae ni,
Nukazukinu, Kashikomite.
Kono yoru kiyoshi, no Miko emi ni
Megumi miyo no no, ashita no hikari,
Kagayakeri, Hogarakani.
Joy To The World:
Moro-Bito Kozorite, Mukae-Matsure!
Hisashiku Machinishi, Kimaseri Shu wa,
Shu wa Kimaseri, Shu wa, Shu wa Kimaseri.
Akuma no Hitoya WO, uchi-Kudakite,
Toriko Hanatsu to WO, Kimaseri Shu wa,
Shu wa Kimaseri, Shu wa, Shu wa Kimaseri.
Kono yo no yami-ji WO, Terashi-Tamo,
Tae-naru hikari no, Shu wa Kimaseri,
Kimaseri Shu wa, Shu wa, Shu wa Kimaseri.
Kokoro no Shibomeru, Hana WO Sakase,
Megumi no Tsuyu Oku, Kimaseri Shu wa,
Shu wa Kimaseri, Shu wa, Shu wa Kimaseri.
Heiwa no naru Kimi, Miko WO Mukae,
Sukui no Nushi to zo, home-Tataeyo,
home-Tataeyo, home, home-Tataeyo!
Away in a Manger:
Kai-oke no ba de nete-iru, Kao no yasashii yesu-sama,
Tsuki hoshi ni kagayaki sora, Heiwa na mi-mamoru sugata.
No de me-zametemo kachiku koe, Nakanai tsuyoi yesu-sama,
Nemuru toki ga atashi mo ni, Mamotte-kudasai asa made.
Subete no kami no kodomo o, Megumi to ai de mitashite,
Made ??mo eien mikuni de, Tomoni sumasete kudasai.
Deck the Halls:
Hiiragi kazaro, Fa la la la la la, la la la la.
Haregi ni kigaete, Fa la la la la la, la la la la.
Carol wo utao, Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Tanoshii kono toki, Fa la la la la la, la la la la.
Kagayaku kono yoru, Fa la la la la la, la la la la.
Harp ni awasete, Fa la la la la la, la la la la.
Tanoshiku odoro, Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Mukashi wo shinonde, Fa la la la la la, la la la la.
Jingle Bells:
Yuki o keri, no-yama koete
Suberi uuku, larui sori
Goe uta-mo, yakarakani
Kokoro mo isamuyo, sori no asobi
Jingle bells, Jingle bells, suzu ga naru
Kyo mo yanoshii, sori asobi no, oh!
Jingle bells, Jingle bells, suzu ga naru
Sa, sa, ikoyo, sori no asobi!
Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer:
Makka na ohana no tonakai-san wa
Itsumo minna no waraimono
Demo sono toshi no kurisumasu no hi
Santa no ojisan wa iimashita
Kurai yomichi wa pika pika no
Omae no hana ga yaku ni tatsu no sa
Itsumo naiteta tonakai-san wa
Koyoi koso wa to yorokobimashita
Soon I will do videos of each of the songs to help!
