Text and translations
 German and  Latin text
Joseph lieber Joseph mein
hilf mir wiegen mein Kindelein,
Gott, der wird dein Löhner sein
im Himmelreich, der Jungfrau Kind Maria.
Eia, eia. Sause.
Virgo Deum genuit,
quem/quod divina voluit clementia.
Omnes nunc concinite,
nato regi psallite,
voce pia dicite:
sit gloria Christo nostro infantulo.
Hodie apparuit in Israel,
quem praedixit Gabriel, est natus Rex.

 English translation
Joseph, my dear Joseph,
help me rock my little child.
God will recompense you
in heaven, the Virgin Mary’s child.
Hey, hey! The Virgin has given birth to God
whom the divine mercy willed.
Now let all sing together,
sing to the newborn king,
saying with devout voice,
“Glory be to Christ our babe!”
Today the one whom Gabriel predicted
has appeared in Israel, has been born king.
