We gathered around the fields- as We kept watch over our herd In a Starry night and silent night Stillness in the air Silence prevailed everywhere We left the sheep to rest and stood by them keeping awake Sudden spurts of songs Loud trumpets from heaven Rumbled as thunder We were shook by fear The sleeping sheep raising fretful bleat Restless sheep ran here and there It was an ordeal to contain them to rest. Dogs barked louder Birds fluttered in fear Resting animals ran here and there Rustling bushes all around Distant foxes howled in fear Cows meowed in groups Fields and valleys shook at trumpet Herds every where moved closer We shepherds gathered in the fields We looked up to heaven With the fear stricken trembled heart
