![Canadian Christmas Carol
The Huron Carol (or Twas in the Moon of Wintertime) is a Canadian Christmas hymn (Canadas oldest Christmas song), written probably in 1642 by Jean de Brébeuf, a Jesuit missionary at Sainte-Marie among the Hurons in Canada.[1] Brébeuf wrote the lyrics in the native language of the Huron/Wendat people; the songs original Huron title is Jesus Ahatonhia (Jesus, he is born). The songs melody is based on a traditional French folk song, Une Jeune Pucelle (A Young Maid). The well-known English lyrics were written in 1926 by Jesse Edgar Middleton and the copyright to these lyrics was held by The Frederick Harris Music Co., Limited, but entered the public domain in 2011.
The 1926 English version by Jesse Edgar Middleton.
Twas in the moon of winter-time
When all the birds had fled,
That mighty Gitchi Manitou
Sent angel choirs instead;
Before their light the stars grew dim,
And wandering hunters heard the hymn:
Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born,
In excelsis gloria.
Within a lodge of broken bark
The tender Babe was found,
A ragged robe of rabbit skin
Enwrappd His beauty round;
But as the hunter braves drew nigh,
The angel song rang loud and high...
Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born,
In excelsis gloria.
The earliest moon of wintertime
Is not so round and fair
As was the ring of glory
On the helpless infant there.
The chiefs from far before him knelt
With gifts of fox and beaver pelt.
Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born,
In excelsis gloria.
O children of the forest free,
O sons of Manitou,
The Holy Child of earth and heaven
Is born today for you.
Come kneel before the radiant Boy
Who brings you beauty, peace and joy.
Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born,
In excelsis gloria.
This is my arrangement of the Huron Carol. I play flugelhorn, classical guitar, and in the background, i moan :o) There is also a nod to one of my favourite composers near the end. A famous brother of the Great Snowy North, across the Arctic Ocean.
