The Huron Wendat Carol

A Transcription of the Huron Carol 

The Documentation group highlighted one issue within the Huron Carol - and that is, transcriptions of the carol were all over the place! This represents the Documentation group's attempt to create a standard transcription of the Huron Carol.

Girault’s orthography:

Estennialon de tson8e Ies8s ahatonnia

Onna8ate8a d’oki n’on8andask8aentak

Ennonchien sk8atrihotat n’on8andilonrachatha

Aloki onkinnhache eronhialeronnon

Now to re-transcribe it.
