Jens Klimek - Christus natus est - текст песни (слова)

In Bethlehem
 On Christmas morn,
 The lowly gem
 Of love was born.
 Hosannah! Christus natus est.
 
 Bright in her crown
 Of fiery star,
 Judea's town
 Shone from afar:
 Hosannah! Christus natus est.
 
 While beasts in stall
 On bended knee,
 Did carol all
 Most joyously:
 Hosannah! Christus natus est.
 
 For bird and beast
 He did not come,
 But for the least
 Of mortal scum.
 Hosannah! Christus natus est.
 
 Who lies in ditch?
 Who begs his bread?
 Who has no stitch
 For back or head?
 Hosannah! Christus natus est.
 
 Who wakes to weep,
 Lies down to mourn?
 Who in his sleep
 Withdraws from scorn?
 Hosannah! Christus natus est.
 
 Ye outraged dust
 On field and plain,
 To feed the lust
 Of madmen slain:
 Hosannah! Christus natus est.
 
 The manger still
 Outshines the throne;
 Christ must and will
 Come to his own.
 Hosannah! Christus natus est.
