Andrea Bocelli:
Cantique de Noël
👼 * Christmas Wishes to you all * 👼
Cantique de Noël is the French (and original) version of the much loved and popular Christmas carol, O Holy Night. The music was written in 1847 by Adolphe Adam, to go along with the poem Minuit, Chrétiens (which means Midnight, Christians) written by Placide Cappeau in 1843.
The English version, O Holy Night, that we sing today was translated from the original French lyrics by John Sullivan Dwight in 1855.
Here are the original lyrics of Cantique de Noël in French and the English translation.
