Lyrics

I østen stiger solen op
Den spreder guld på sky
Går over hav og bjergetop
Går over land og by
Den kommer fra den favre kyst
Hvor paradiset lå;
Den bringer lys og liv og lyst
Til store og til små
Den hilser os endnu så smukt
Fra edens morgenrød
Hvor træet stod med evig frugt
Hvor livets væld udflød
Den hilser os fra lysets hjem
Hvor størst Guds lys oprandt
Med stjernen over Bethlehem
Som østens vise fandt
Og med Guds sol udgår fra øst
En himmelsk glans på jord
Et glimt fra paradisets kyst
Hvor livets abild gror
Og alle stjerner neje sig
Hvor østens sol går frem:
Den synes dem hin stjerne lig
Der stod ved Bethlehem
Du soles sol fra Bethlehem!
Hav tak og lov og pris
For hvert et glimt fra lysets hjem
Og fra dit paradis

Lyrics translation

In the East the sun rises
It spreads gold on cloud
Crossing the sea and mountain top
Crossing country and city
It comes from the favre Coast
Where Paradise lay;
It brings light and life and light
For large and for small
It still welcomes us so beautifully
From the dawn of Eden
Where the tree stood with eternal fruit
Where the abundance of life flowed
It greets us from the home of light
Where the greatest light of God came from
With the star of Bethlehem
As the wise of the East found
And with God's sun going forth from the East
A heavenly shine on Earth
A glimpse from the coast of paradise
Where the abild of life grows
And All Stars curtsy
Where the sun of the East goes forward:
It seems to them that Star body
It was at Bethlehem
You Suns sun from Bethlehem!
Have thanks and praise and praise
For every glimpse from the home of light
And from your paradise
