"The First Noel" is a traditional Christmas carol that tells the story of the birth of Jesus Christ. The word "Noel" itself is derived from the French word "Noël," meaning Christmas or the Christmas season.The song is believed to have originated in the 16th or 17th century, and its exact authorship is unknown. It has been passed down through generations and has become a popular Christmas hymn.
The lyrics of "The First Noel" typically describe the joyous announcement of the birth of Jesus by angels to shepherds in the fields. The shepherds are guided by a bright star to Bethlehem, where they find the baby Jesus lying in a manger. The lyrics emphasize the significance of the event and the adoration of the shepherds for the newborn Christ.
Here are the first few lines of the song:
"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 winter's night that was so deep."
The song is often sung in a reverent and celebratory manner, capturing the spirit of Christmas and the joyous occasion of Jesus' birth. It has been recorded by numerous artists and is a staple in many Christmas carol collections.
