My favourite Christmas carol Translated from Norwegian
Lovely is the Earth
Glorious are the Heavens
Beautiful is the pilgrimeage of the souls
Through the wonderful realms of the Earth
Go we to paradise with song
Times will come
Times will roll yonder
Generations will follow the passing of generations
Never is it silenced, the tone from Heaven
In the happy pilgrimeage of the soul
The angels sang it
first for the sheperds of the grounds
Beautiful from soul to soul it rang
Peace on Earth
Human rejoice
To us an eternal saviour is born
I have wondered if I'm the only one to see the esoteric meaning of this carol. The first two verses are packed with esoteric meaning, only the last verse is wholly Christian.
And the melody is very beautiful as well.
