What Child is This?

(original)
1. Что за Дитя в хлеву чужом
Мария охраняет?
Небесный хор поёт о Нём,
А пастухи внимают.
Сей есть Христос Господь,
Пришедший в мир с небес высот,
Он нам Всевышним дан,
Спаситель, Сын Марии.
2. Зачем же в яслях Он лежит,
Где овцам корм давали?
Чтоб всякий мог у ног Его
Сложить свои печали.
3. Ему в дар золото и ладан,
И смирну принесите-
Он Царь царей, пред Ним скорей
Дверь сердца отворите.
(translation)
1. What kind of child is in a strange barn
Mary guards?
The heavenly choir sings about Him,
And the shepherds are listening.
This is Christ the Lord,
Who came into the world from the heights of heaven,
He is given to us by the Almighty,
Savior, Son of Mary.
2. Why is He lying in a manger,
Where were the sheep fed?
So that everyone can at His feet
Lay down your sorrows.
3. He is given gold and frankincense as a gift,
And bring myrrh -
He is the King of kings, before Him rather
Open the door of the heart.
