Maria wallt zum Heiligtum
Maria wallt zum Heiligtum und bringt ihr Kindlein dar,
das schaut der greise Simeon, wie ihm verheißen war.
Da nimmt er Jesum in den Arm und singt im Geiste froh:
Nun fahr’ ich hin mit Freud, dich, Heiland, sah ich heut,
du Trost von Israel, das Licht der Welt.
When to the temple Mary went, and brought the Holy Child,
him did the aged Simeon see, as it had been revealed.
He took up Jesus in his arms and blessing God, he said:
In peace I now depart, my Saviour having seen
the Hope of Israel, the Light of men.
Words: tr. John Troutbeck (1832–99)
Music: Johannes Eccard (1553–1611)
