Gesù bambino is an Italian Christmas carol composed by Pietro Yon in 1917. The melody was used by Frederick H. Martens in his English language carol "When Blossoms Flowered 'mid the Snows". The melody and lyrics of the chorus are derived from the chorus of "Adeste Fideles" (O Come All Ye Faithful).
The lyrics tell the story of a man, nicknamed "Gesù Bambino" in spite of his well-known vices, who was born from the brief relationship between an American soldier, temporarily in Italy because of World War II, and an ingenous 16-year-old girl who soon left him an orphan. [2] [3] [4]
