Текст песни Новокузнецкие вечера - Дитя похожее на всех детей земли

Bethlehem slept, forgetting about business,
And only the shepherds grazed the flock.
That night Mary gave birth to a Son -
A child like all the children of the earth.
The baby in the cradle slept sweetly,
And in the manger it was clear as if during the day.
The huge world seemed to be waiting for a miracle
And this miracle was in Him.
Three shepherds and an angel in front
Full of joy entered
And they see: presses the Mother to her chest
A child like all the children of the earth.
Mary froze, Joseph got up a little,
A dumb question froze on their faces.
And the Angel pointed to the Baby:
- Look, people, Christ has come to you.
The Magi walked, the caravan was led in the sands,
Camels sailed like ships
To where Mother shakes in her arms
A child like all the children of the earth.
Where the floor is covered with golden straw
The moon shines through the window like a lantern.
The baby is guarded by a donkey and an ox,
Look - here is the great King!
Old Testament and New threshold.
Soul, heed the inexpressible -
Opened from Heaven: now God is with us,
A child like all the children of the earth.
And the way of the cross, which He will pass,
Already seen by Him from under the covered eyelids.
Someday Pilate will say:
- Look, people, this is a Man!
Israel, listen, will you go out to meet
The one about whom the prophets prophesied?
But alone Mother is numb
A child like all the children of the earth
