For, longe for, en Judea land'

Representative Text

1. For, longe for, en Judea land',
Al ŝafistar' kantis anĝel-band':

Gloro al Di', Gloro al Di',
Gloro al Di' en plejalto;
Pac' al ter', al homoj bon',
Pac' al ter', al homoj bon'.

2. Dolĉas ĉi vortoj pri sava am'.
Ĵuras kompaton ĉiel-proklam':

Gloro al Di', Gloro al Di',
Gloro al Di' en plejalto;
Pac' al ter', al homoj bon',
Pac' al ter', al homoj bon'.

3. Kun la anĝeloj ĝoj-kantu ni,
Kantu elkore; nin helpos Di':

Gloro al Di', Gloro al Di',
Gloro al Di' en plejalto;
Pac' al ter', al homoj bon',
Pac' al ter', al homoj bon'.

4. Venu la temp' kiam tra l' tut-mond'
Kantos sublime homara rond':

Gloro al Di', Gloro al Di',
Gloro al Di' en plejalto;
Pac' al ter', al homoj bon',
Pac' al ter', al homoj bon'.
