Ĉesu, milita bru'

Representative Text

1. Ĉesu, milita bru', silentu naciar':
Aŭskultu sur genu' al la anĝel-deklar':
Liberu el katenoj — jen la Di-donac':
Naskiĝis por vi ĵus la Dia Princ' de Pac'.

2. Ne plu disigu vin, ho homa gefratar'!
Forigu la malamon, plektu amon, ĉar
Gefratoj amikiĝu en la jar' de grac':
Naskiĝis por vi ĵus la Dia Princ' de Pac'.
