Paroles et traduction Hanne Krogh - Det Lyser I Stille Grender

Det Lyser I Stille Grender

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,
Men englane song der ute
På Betlehems aude eng.

Der song dei for første gongen
Ved natt over Davids by
"Den evige himmelsongen,
Som alltid er ung og ny."

It Shines in Silent Hamlets

It shines in silent hamlets
Of sparkling light tonight,
And thousands of children's hands
Are raised toward the light heaven.

And with glad song they greet
Their brother in the celestial hall,
Who came and became the Savior of the world
As a child in a miserable stable.

There he lay with hay for a pillow
And cried on his humble bed,
But the angels sang outside
On Bethlehem's desolate plain.

There they sang for the first time
At night over the city of David
"The eternal song of heaven,
Which is always young and new."
