What Child is this who, laid to rest
On Mary’s lap, is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spear shall pierce him through,
The Cross be borne for me, for you;
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh;
Come peasant, king to own Him.
The King of kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
Raise, raise, the song on high,
The virgin sings her lullaby;
Joy, joy, for Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
The lyrics WHAT CHILD IS THIS of ANDREA BOCELLI is also present in the album Mi navidad (2009)
Andrea Bocelli (Lajatico, 22 settembre 1958) è un tenore italiano di fama internazionale. Considerato uno dei più grandi tenori contemporanei, insieme a Placido Domingo, Luciano Pavarotti e José Carreras, ha saputo conquistare il pubblico sia nel campo dell'opera classica che in quello del crossover. Bocelli ha studiato legge all'Università di Pisa, ma la sua passione per la musica lo ha portato a dedicarsi alla carriera musicale. Dopo aver vinto un concorso canoro nel 1994, ha debuttato con successo al Teatro La Fenice di Venezia. Il suo album d'esordio, *Il mare calmo della mia mente*, pubblicato nel 1995, è diventato rapidamente un disco di platino in Italia e in Europa. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano *Con te partirò* (The Time of My Life), *Vivere*, *Besame Mucho* e *Time to Say Goodbye*. Bocelli ha collaborato con numerosi artisti internazionali, tra cui Celine Dion, Sarah Brightman e David Foster. La sua musica è stata utilizzata in film, serie TV e spot pubblicitari di grande successo.
