The Holy Three Kings from the East besought
In every hamlet: “Tell us,
Which is the way to Bethlehem,
Ye dear little maids and fellows ?”
Nor young folks, nor old folks, could show them the way—
The Kings they further journeyed;
They followed where led a golden star
Whose pure bright light they discernèd.
The star stood still over Joseph's house;
And there they entered fairly;
The oxen lowed, the suckling screamed,
The Holy Three Kings sang cheerly.
