Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Die Roten Rosen Lyrics

The original lyrics of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" has been modified in the above version by Die Roten Rosen. The song begins with the announcement of the birth of the King and the rejoicing that follows. The sacred and glorious occasion is related as it brings peace on Earth and reconciles God and sinners. This is a moment of joy for all people around the world, who are urged to join the celebrations taking place in the skies as the angels announce the birth of the Christ in Bethlehem. The song expresses the exuberant joy over the birth of Jesus Christ and his coming as the savior to bring peace to human beings.

However, Die Roten Rosen’s version of the song takes a humorous approach, where the lyrics are intended to be funny and are not meant to be taken seriously. The words have been replaced by something that is perceived as crude or vulgar in comparison to the original song. The verse that follows the original lyrics talks about the reconciliation of husband and wife with the help of pills, and the song ends with an exclamation of "Glory to all newborn kings." The phrase "Hark! The herald angels sing" has been used as a bridge in the song, though it does not have any relation to the rest of the verses.
