Although this song is about Jesus,

I think it can also apply to every child in this world,

and how a single child can be a beacon of hope

When A Child Is Born　（子供が生まれる時）

A ray of hope flickers in the sky

希望の光がひとすじ空に輝き

A tiny star lights up way up high

小さな星がはるか彼方に灯り

All across the land, dawns a brand new morn

全世界に真新しい夜明けがおとずれる

This comes to pass when a child is born

子供が生まれる時起こる事

A silent wish sails the seven seas

静かなる願いが七つの海を渡り

The winds of change whisper in the trees

変化の風が木々の中でささやく

And The walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn

そして疑いの壁は砕け崩れる

This comes to pass when a child is born

子供が生まれる時起こる事

A rosy hue settles all around

あたり一面ほのかなバラ色に染められて

You’ve got the feel you’re on solid ground

確かな地面を全身で感じ

For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn

誰も孤独を知ることのない魔法のひと時

This comes to pass when a child is born

子供が生まれる時起こる事

It’s all a dream. An illusion now

今はまだ夢、幻想だけれど

It must come true sometime soon somehow

いつかすぐ必ず現実となる

All across the land, dawns a brand new morn

全世界に真新しい夜明けがおとずれる

This comes to pass when a child is born

子供が生まれる時起こる事

It’s all a dream. An illusion now

今はまだ夢、幻想だけれど

It must come true sometime soon somehow

いつかすぐ必ず現実となる

All across the land, dawns a brand new morn

全世界に真新しい夜明けがおとずれる

This comes to pass when a child is born

子供が生まれる時起こる事

when a child is born

子供が生まれる時
