O, helga natt - O Holy Night


Jussi Björling (1911-1960) was a Swedish tenor. One of the leading operatic singers of the 20th century, Björling appeared for many years at the Metropolitan Opera in New York and less frequently at the major European opera houses, including the Royal Opera House in London and La Scala in Milan. Finland is a bilingual country, our official languages are Finnish and Swedish. My first mother-in-law was a Swedish speaking Finn. From her I have this Christmas tradition to listen Jussi Björling sing this wonderful Christmas carol in Swedish.

Er war ein schwedischer Opernsänger in der Stimmlage Tenor. Bitte lesen sie hier auf Deutsch.

Jussi Björling (1911-1960) oli ruotsalainen tenori. Hän oli 1900-luvun johtavia oopperalaulajia ja esiintyi vuosia New Yorkin Metropolitanissa ja myös Euroopan johtavissa oopperoissa, kuten Lontoossa ja Milanossa. Minun ensimmäinen anoppini oli suomenruotsalainen ja häneltä jäi tämä ihana joulutraditio - kuunnella Jussi Björlingin tulkinta ruotsiksi tästä Adamin joululaulusta.

Underneath the lyrics in both Swedish and English.

Wishing you all a very precious Christmas!
Tunnelmallista joulua!


O, HELGA NATT
O helga natt, o helga stund för världen,
då Gudamänskan till jorden steg ned!
För att försona världens brott och synder,
för oss han dödens smärta led.
Och hoppets stråle går igenom världen,
och ljuset skimrar över land och hav.

Folk, fall nu neder, och hälsa glatt din frihet.
O helga natt, du frälsning åt oss gav.
O helga natt, du frälsning åt oss gav.

Ty frälsar’n krossat våra tunga bojor.
Vår jord är fri, himlen öppen nu är
Uti din slav du ser en älskad broder,
och se, din ovän blir dig kär.
Från himlen bragte frälsaren oss friden,
för oss han nedsteg i sin stilla grav.

Folk, fall nu neder, och hälsa glatt din frihet.
O helga natt, du frälsning åt oss gav.
O helga natt, du frälsning åt oss gav.
O HOLY NIGHT
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of our dear Saviour’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
‘Til He appear’d and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.

Fall on your knees! O hear the angels’ voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born;
O night divine, O night, O night Divine.

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here come the wise men from Orient land.
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friend.

He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger,
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend!

Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother;
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.

Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever,
His power and glory evermore proclaim.
His power and glory evermore proclaim.
