Original text and translations
German and 
Latin text
Ein Kindelein so löbelich
ist uns geboren heute,
von einer Jungfrau säuberlich,
zu Trost uns armen Leuten.
Wär’ uns das Kind’lein nicht gebor’n
so wär’n wir allzumal verlor’n.
Das Heil ist unser alle.
Eia, du süsser Jesu Christ,
das du Mensch geboren bist,
behüt uns vor der Hölle.
Joseph, lieber Joseph mein,
hilf mir wiegen das Kindelein,
Gott, der wird dein Lohner sein
im Himmelreich
der Jungfrauen Kind Maria.
Eia.
Virgo Deum genuit
quem divina voluit clementia.
Omnes nunc concinite,
nato regi psallite,
voce pia dicite:
sit Gloria Christo nato infantulo.
Hodie apparuit in Israel,
quem predixit Gabriel,
est natus rex.
