first noel
Nativity night song
First Noel refers to "The First Noel," a traditional Christmas carol celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
Noel comes from French for Christmas, so the title means "the first Christmas"—the original nativity.
The carol recounts the story of shepherds seeing the Star of Bethlehem: The first Noel the angel did say was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay.
