Tekst piosenki
Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
Dawn on our darkness and lend us Thine aid;
Star of the East, the horizon adorning,
Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
Cold on His cradle the dewdrops are shining;
Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall;
Angels adore Him in slumber reclining,
Maker and Monarch and Savior of all!
Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion,
Odors of Edom and offerings divine?
Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine?
Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
Vainly with gifts would His favor secure;
Richer by far is the heart’s adoration,
Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
Tłumaczenie tekstu piosenki
Najjaśniejsi i najlepsi z synów poranka,
Dawn on our darkness and lean US Thine aid;
Gwiazda Wschodu, horyzont zdobi,
Przewodnik, gdzie spoczywa nasz Odkupiciel.
Cold on His cradle the rosdrops are shining;
Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall;
Anioły adorują go we śnie,
Stwórca, Monarcha i Zbawca wszystkich!
Say, shall we give Him, in costly devotion,
Zapachy Edomu i boskie ofiary?
Klejnoty góry i perły oceanu,
Mirra z lasu, czy złoto z kopalni?
Daremnie ofiarujemy każdą obfitą ofiarę,
Daremnie z darów Jego łaska zabezpieczy;

Droższe dla Boga są modlitwy ubogich.
