The baby son who rests
on Mother Mary’s lap,
born in Bethlehem,
in the name of Prince Jesus
The coming of Christmas,
the heavens singing songs,
freeing every heart from the stain of sin,
filling hearts with the love of God
Shepherds were tending their sheep that night,
angels sang and announced the news that night,
the stable and heaven were joined by a star that night,
the night they saw the face of the Messiah . .
The coming of Christmas,
the heavens singing songs,
freeing every heart from the stain of sin,
filling hearts with the love of God
Kings came bearing myrrh and fragrant resin,
bringing the news that the King of heaven was born in the cattle-shed,
glory rang out across the world in the sound of angel-song,
the sound of peace was heard . .
The baby son who rests
on Mother Mary’s lap,
born in Bethlehem,
in the name of Prince Jesus
The coming of Christmas,
the heavens singing songs,
freeing every heart from the stain of sin,
filling hearts with the love of God

Mari Mawge Ukule Song Meaning and Interpretation
A gentle, reverent Sinhala Christmas carol, an original by the Marians, that simply retells the Nativity. Its refrain returns again and again to the central image: the baby son resting on Mother Mary’s lap, born in Bethlehem, in the name of Prince Jesus. Everything in the song circles back to that quiet picture of mother and child.
The chorus names what Christmas means to the singer: the coming of Christmas, the heavens singing, every heart freed from the stain of sin and filled instead with the love of God. It frames the season not as festivity but as spiritual cleansing and grace.
The verses walk through the familiar Gospel scenes: shepherds tending their sheep by night when the angels sang out the news; the stable and heaven joined by a single star; the night they saw the face of the Messiah; and the kings arriving with myrrh and fragrant resin to announce that the King of heaven was born in the cattle-shed. It ends on glory ringing across the world and, above all, the sound of peace. Sung by Nalin Perera, written by Rev. Fr. Saman Maximus, it is a warm, faithful carol celebrating the birth of Jesus and the peace and love it brings.
