Stille Nacht Heilige Nacht is one of the most known German
Christmas Songs which will be chanted mostly at Christmas Eve. Here
is the German text and a translation will follow below: 1. Stille
Nacht! Heil'ge Nacht! Alles schläft; einsam wacht Nur das traute
heilige Paar. Holder Knab' im lockigten Haar, |: Schlafe in
himmlischer Ruh! :| 2. Stille Nacht! Heil'ge Nacht! Gottes Sohn, o
wie lacht Lieb' aus deinem göttlichen Mund, Da uns schlägt die
rettende Stund'. |: Jesus in deiner Geburt! :| 3. Stille Nacht!
Heil'ge Nacht! Die der Welt Heil gebracht, Aus des Himmels goldenen
Höhn, Uns der Gnaden Fülle läßt sehn, |: Jesum in Menschengestalt!
:| 4. Stille Nacht! Heil'ge Nacht! Wo sich heut alle Macht
Väterlicher Liebe ergoß, Und als Bruder huldvoll umschloß |: Jesus
die Völker der Welt! :| 5. Stille Nacht! Heil'ge Nacht! Lange schon
uns bedacht, Als der Herr vom Grimme befreit In der Väter urgrauer
Zeit |: Aller Welt Schonung verhieß! :| 6. Stille Nacht! Heil'ge
Nacht! Hirten erst kundgemacht Durch der Engel Alleluja, Tönt es
laut bei Ferne und Nah: |: "Jesus der Retter ist da!" :| Here a
fairly literal translation by Frank from 1997 (found on:
http://ingeb.org/Lieder/stillena.html) 1. Silent night! Holy night!
All's asleep, one sole light, Just the faithful and holy pair,
Lovely boy-child with curly hair, |: Sleep in heavenly peace! :| 2.
Silent night! Holy night! God's Son laughs, o how bright. Love from
your holy lips shines clear, As the dawn of salvation draws near,
|: Jesus, Lord, with your birth! :| 3. Silent night! Holy night!
Brought the world peace tonight, From the heavens' golden height
Shows the grace of His holy might |: Jesus, as man on this earth!
:| 4. Silent night! holy night! Where today all the might Of His
fatherly love us graced And then Jesus, as brother embraced. |: All
the peoples on earth! :| 5. Silent night! Holy night! Long we hoped
that He might, As our Lord, free us of wrath, Since times of our
fathers He hath |: Promised to spare all mankind! :| 6. Silent
night! Holy night! Sheperds first see the sight. Told by angelic
Alleluja, Sounding everywhere, both near and far: |: "Christ the
Savior is here!" :| This christmas song was record during the
satsang at Yoga http://www.yoga-vidya.de Vidya Ashram Bad Meinberg.
