Arvid Lys Mere Lys song lyrics
Arvid Lys Mere Lys translation
En mand går rundt i byens stille gader
There is a man walking around the city's quiet streets
En nattevagt med våben og med lys
The night watchman, armed with weapons, armed with light
Han frygter ikke dunkle gemmesteder
He does not fear what lies in the dark alleyways
hver time brummer han på salmevers
As he patrols the streets, he sings hymns


Om Gud og konge, fædreland og minder
About God, king, country and about good memories
Fra dengang han var ung og verden ny
From when he was young and the world was new
Hans stille sang velsigner mænd og kvinder
His quiet songs bless the people
Og kalder på beskyttelse for byen
As he calls out for protection for the city


Lys mere lys bryd igennem
Light more light, breaks through
Vi længes efter morgengry
We are longing for the dawn
Lys mere lys, Gud er for os
Light more light, God is for us
Må mørket slippe vores by
May the Darkness leave our city


Og byen sover trygt for ingen fjende
The city sleeps soundly for no enemy
Kan gøre ondt når vægteren er klar
Can disturb when the watchman is on guard
Hans våben er et lys en morgenstjerne
His weapon is a light, a morning star
Han frygter intet, vover hver en fare
He fears nothing, no danger


Han bærer lys til byens torv og porte
He carries light into the town square and to the gates
Små lys gi'r håb og mørkets endeligt
This small light gives hope that the darkness will end
Han glæder sig til himlens morgenrøde
He looks forward to the arrival of the dawn
Når dagen vågner er hans vagt forbi
When the day wakes his watch is done


Lys mere lys bryd igennem
Light more light, breaks through
Vi længes efter morgengry
We are longing for the dawn
Lys mere lys, Gud er for os
Light more light, God is for us
Må mørket slippe vores by
May the Darkness leave our city


Jesus du er solen fra Guds rige
Jesus, you are the bright sun in God's kingdom
Vi længes efter at du bryder frem
We long for you to break into the night
Og indtil da som vægteren, vi sprede
Until then, we serve as watchmen
Små lys i mørket håb om evigt hjem
Spreading light in this darkness, hoping for our eternal home


Lys mere lys bryd igennem
Light more light, breaks through
Vi længes efter morgengry
We are longing for the dawn
Lys mere lys, Gud er for os
Light more light, God is for us
Må mørket slippe vores by
May the Darkness leave our city
