Engel freuten sich der Wonne,
Jener Wonne,
Die der Mittler seiner Mutter,
Seinem Freunde sterbend gab.
Abgetrocknet sind nun ihnen
Alle Thränen,
Mit den Engeln freu'n sie sich.

Angels rejoiced at the bliss,
that bliss,
granted by the Savior to his mother,
to his friend through his death.
They have now dried
every tear,
with the angels they rejoice.
