Now, folks, now let's close it up!
My song might be a bit old,
but it’s still lovely enough.
I believe you all will like it.
...
Joseph wasn’t given a bad deal either.
You think you could manage a bit of work,
then you’d get a nice document,
that would really lighten the tax burden!
Yes, scratch behind your ears,
you won’t get into trouble, my dear!
And payment was always made,
nobody would start with the state.
...
In the woods, it’s so quiet,
all paths are covered,
all paths are blocked,
no little trail is left.
The holy night is coming,
and the woods awaken,
the hares and deer look,
the stag watches over the snow.
...
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
And from the far, from the near
and from below to the highest heights,
and it soon gets loud, and sometimes it fades,
up above, and again it comes down.
Hallelujah!
