Habet [English translation]

Two bright starlets in Little Bear

Beshining the newborn morn

Did upon a sky-farer crow glare;

The olden fishermen wake,

They throw their nests in the lake.

And the good stars sing when a babe is born.

Ave:

Fallen from the sky like a spell.

Ave:

It sounded alike a death knell.

Ave:

It means 'welcome, youthful masses!'

While the hand caresses.

While the hand caresses.

Youthful no longer scream,

For gag does them easily hush;

Even the song of a nightingale lean,

May a grip of a hand gruesomely crush.

And to with Herod cheer,

To clap in a shower of thank-yous;

Until someone behind a curtain sheer,

Raises a dagger to abuse.

Habet:

How selfsame sounds the word?

Habet:

Though a bit more folk bled.

Habet:

It means a thumb pointing ground-ward

With hands folded.

With hands folded.

Habet:

It means a thumb pointing ground-ward

With hands folded.

With hands folded.
