Nativity

Tr.by Hiromichi Onizuka.

From Nazareth, a town of Galilee,
Pregnant Mary, riding on a donkey,
hurried on the dry road

to register in census,
at the home town of Joseph.

*
The crowededness in Bethlehem,
with no room stay to.
were sent away to a manger.

the new born baby,
quietly sleeps in a manger.

*
The Christ, God’s only son,
appeared in human form,
destines the Messiah’s road.

He was given the Name Jesus,
brights the innocent face.

*

While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

Luke 2:6-7
