Baby Jesus is crying (Jezus malusienki) — Lyrics
Baby Jesus is crying
In the cold He is weeping,
For the winter frosts are biting
Thro’ the hay which enfolds Him,
For the winter frosts are biting
Round His head as He’s lying.

About Baby Jesus is crying (Jezus malusienki)
This moving Christmas carol paints a poignant scene of the infant Jesus weeping in the cold. The biting winter frosts penetrate the hay that serves as His bed, despite His mother's embrace and the adoration of shepherds and wise men. The text, sung here in a combination of English and Polish, emphasizes the vulnerability of the Christ child and evokes a powerful sense of compassion. Arranged for SATB choir, this sacred piece beautifully conveys the tender and somber aspects of the Nativity story, offering a unique and emotionally resonant expression for any Christmas concert or service.
