about
Originariamente un inno finlandese del XIII secolo intitolato “Tempus adest floridum”, dedicato alla primavera. Le parole furono aggiunte da John Mason Neale nel XIX secolo e fanno riferimento al re boemo Venceslao e alle sue opere di carità verso i poveri. L’allusione alla festività di Santo Stefano probabilmente giustifica il suo essere associata al Natale.
lyrics
Good king Wenceslas
(Musica: canto tradizionale finlandese del XIII secolo, testo di John Mason Neale)
Good King Wenceslas looked out
on the feast of Stephen
when the snow lay round about
deep and crisp and even.
Brightly shone the moon that night
though the frost was cruel
when a poor man came in sight
gath'ring winter fuel
"Hither, page, and stand by me
if thou know'st it, telling,
yonder peasant, who is he?
Where and what his dwelling?"
"Sire, he lives a good league hence
underneath the mountain
right against the forest fence
by Saint Agnes' fountain."
"Bring me flesh and bring me wine
bring me pine logs hither:
thou and I will see him dine
when we bear him thither."
Page and monarch forth they went,
forth they went together
through the rude wind's wild lament
and the bitter weather
"Sire, the night is darker now
And the wind blows stronger.
Fails my heart, I know not how,
I can go no longer."
"Mark my footsteps, my good page
Tread thou in them boldly:
thou shalt find the winter's rage
freeze thy blood less coldly."
In his master's steps he trod
where the snow lay dinted.
Heat was in the very sod
which the Saint had printed.
Therefore, Christian men, be sure,
wealth or rank possessing:
Ye who now will bless the poor
shall yourselves find blessing
