Heremit Songs op. 29

4. The heavenly banquet

xx

I would like to have the men of Heaven in my own house;
with vats of good cheer laid out for them.
I would like to have the three Mary's,
their fame is so great.
I would like people from every corner of Heaven.
I would like them to be cheerful in their drinking.
I would like to have Jesus sitting here among them.
I would like a great lake of beer for the King of Kings.
I would like to be watching Heaven's family
Drinking it through all eternity.

xx

Het hemelse banket

xx

Ik had graag de mannen van de hemel in mijn eigen huis;
met vaten vol goede gezondheid voor hen uitgestald.
Ik had graag de drie Maria's,
hun roem is zo groot.
Ik had graag mensen uit alle hoeken van de Hemel hier.
