Original text and translations

Latvian text

1. Nāc, mans Jēzu, ilgi gaidīts, dzimis tautas atbrīvot,
grēka važas no mums raisīt, savu mieru starp mums nest.

2. Visu tautu spēks un stiprums, visu ļaužu cerība:
piepildi Tu visas sirdis, kas pēc Tevis ilgojas.

3. Dzimi, lai mūs atpestītu, Cilvēks – Dievs un Karali,
dzimi, valdītu lai mūsos, debesīs mus vadītu.
Amen.
