The words
Det är en ros utsprungen av Jesse rot och stam. Av fädren re'n besjungen, den står i tiden fram och bär en blomma blid, mitt i den kalla vinter, i midnatts mörka tid.
O Herre, dem som klaga i denna jämmerns dal, nu med din hjälp ledsaga till Fadrens fröjdesal. Ja, i din Faders hus, låt oss dig evigt lova i salighet och ljus.

The words
Es ist ein Ros entsprungen aus einer Wurzel zart, wie uns die Alten sungen, von Jesse kam die Art, und hat ein Blümlein bracht, mitten im kalten Winter, wohl zu der halben Nacht.
