Night falls, a frosted calm, hearth fires burn bright
Blue shades the twilight sky, dark shadow’d night
Then through the dark’ning sky
Bright candles light my eye
Sankta Lucia, Sankta Lucia!

Grand, silent night floats in, on gentle wings.
Snow falls, a graceful balm, when firelight sings.
Lo, she stands bright and fair,
White robe’d with silver hair
Sankta Lucia, Sankta Lucia!

So does she promise us, new days shall rise
Earth’s valleys fill with light, bright morning skies.
Farewell we bid the night,
Sun brings its golden light!
Sankta Lucia, Sankta Lucia!
