Original text and translations

Latvian text

1. Katru gad' no jauna Kristus Bērniņš nāk
   pie mums zemē ļaunā un mūs svētīt sāk.

2. Nāk Viņš katrā mājā savā godībā;
   stiprina, kad vāja, mūsu ticība.

3. Arī man Viņš klātu, acīm neredzams,
   valda manu prātu, rokā vadīdams.

English translation

Each year again the Christ-child comes
to us on the sinful Earth and blesses us.

He enters every home in His glory,
strengthening our faith if need be.

He comes to me too, although no eye can see Him;
He is in all my thoughts; He leads me by the hand.

Translation by Mick Swithinbank
