Do you hear what I hear?
(Hear what I hear, hear what I hear?)
Said the night wind to the little lamb
Do you see what I see? (do you see what I see?)
Way up in the sky, little lamb
Do you see what I see? (do you see what I see?)
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite
Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear? (Do you hear what I hear?)
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear? (Do you hear what I hear?)
A song, a song high above the tree
With a voice as big as the the sea
With a voice as big as the the sea
Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king
Do you know what I know? (what I know, what I know?)
In your palace warm, mighty king
Do you know what I know? (what I know, what I know?)
A Child, a Child shivers in the cold
Let us bring him silver and gold
Let us bring him silver and gold
Said the king to the people everywhere
Listen to what I say! (what I say, what I say)
Pray for peace, people, everywhere
Listen to what I say! (what I say, what I say)
The Child, the Child sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light ... [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/andy_williams/do_you_hear_what_i_hear.html ]

When it came out in 1962 during the cuban missile crisis it had an inherently different meaning... Do you hear what i hear refers to the sounds of war or sabers rattling in the night... A star dancing in the sky is the missile on its way to earth with its tail as big as the sky... With a with a voice as big as the sea refers to the explosion of the nuclear warhead... A child shivering in the cold refers to the nuclear winter that follows. The kings message is to pray for peace everywhere.
