Shepherd, shepherd, hark that calling!
Angels they are and the day is dawning.
What is this ding-dong,
Or loud singing is it?

Come Bras, now the day is here.
The shepherdess we'll visit.
Shepherd, shepherd hark that calling!
Angels they are and the day is dawning.

O, is this the Alcade's daughter,
Or some lady come from far?
She is daughter of God the Father,

And she shines like a star.
Shepherd, shepherd, hark that calling!
Angels they are and the day is dawning.
