| Text Translation | “Who knocks tonight so late?” The weary porter said. Three Kings stood at the gate, Each with a crown on his head. The serving man bowed down; The inn was full, he knew. Said he, “In all this town Is no t place for you!” A light the manger lit; There lay the Mother meek. Said they, “This place is t: Here is the rest we seek!” They loosed their latchet strings; So stood they all unshod. Come in, come in, ye Kings! And kiss the Feet of God. Laurence Housman |
