Det lyser i stille grender - Maria Arredondo

Det lyser i stille grender

Av tindrande ljos i kveld

Og tusene barnehender

Mot himmelen ljosa held

Og glade med song dei helsar

Sin broder i himmelhall

Som kom og vart heimsens Frelsar

Som barn i ein vesal stall

Der låg han med høy til pute

Og gret på si ringe seng

Mens englane song der ute

På Betlehems aude eng

Hmmm

Der song dei for fyrste gongen

Ved natt over Davids by

Den evige himmelsongen

Som alltid er ung og ny

Den songen som atter tonar

Med jubel kvar julenatt

Om barnet, Guds Son, vår frelsar

Som døden for evig batt

Om barnet, Guds Son, vår frelsar

Som døden for evig batt

Hmmm

Lights shines from quiet hamlets

Of twinkling lights tonight

And thousands of children's hands

Against the bright sky

And happy with song they salute

His brother in heaven

Who came and was the world's Savior

Like a child in a vassal stable

There he lay with hay for a pillow

And cried on his poor bed

While the angels sang outside

On Bethlehem's desolate meadow

Hmmm

There they sang for the first time

At night over the City of David

The eternal sky song

Who is always young and new

The song that rings again

With cheers every Christmas night

About the child, the Son of God, our savior

As death forever beat

About the child, the Son of God, our savior

As death forever beat

Hmmm
