Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics
The people walking in darknessLa gente que camina en la oscuridad
Have seen a great light;Ha visto una gran luz;
On those living in the shadowSobre aquellos que viven en la sombra
A light has dawned.Ha amanecido una luz.
You've enlarged the nationHas agrandado la nación
Increased their joy;Aumentado su alegría;
They rejoice before youSe regocijan ante ti
As people rejoice at the harvestComo la gente se regocija en la cosecha
For you have shattered the yoke that burdens them,Porque has destrozado el yugo que los carga,
The rod of their oppressor.La vara de su opresor.
Because to us a child is bornPorque nos ha nacido un niño
A son is given to us.Un hijo se nos ha dado.
And the government will be on his shoulders.Y el gobierno estará sobre sus hombros.
And he will be calledY será llamado
Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty GodMaravilloso Consejero, Dios Poderoso
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.Padre Eterno, Príncipe de Paz.
Of the increase of his government and peaceDel aumento de su gobierno y paz
There will be no endNo habrá fin
He'll reign over his kingdomReinará sobre su reino
Upholding it with justice and righteousnessSosteniéndolo con justicia y rectitud
From that time on and forever.Desde ese momento y para siempre.
