The Muse

Translation for Misty

Kiyoshi Kono Yoru

ETA: This is in Japanese.

A less literal translation:

On this pure night the stars are shining
Child who will save us, sleep at your mother's breast
Dreaming peacefully

On this pure night they receive a message
The shepherds bow respectfully
Before the Child

Lyrics and word-for-word translation below:

Kiyoshi kono yoru
  On this holy night
Hoshi wa hikari
  The stars shine
Sukui no miko wa
  Child who will save us [lying]
Mihaha no mune ni
  [at] the Holy Mother's breast
Nemuri tamou
  Sleeping dreamily
Nemuyasuku
  Sleeping gently

Kiyoshi kono yoru
  On this holy night
Mitsuge ukeshi
  [they] receive a message
Hitsujikaira wa
  The shepherds
Miko no mimae ni
  Before the Child
Nukazukinu
  They bow
Kasikomite
  respectfully
