Dziļā pusnakts tumsā (Wśród nocnej ciszy) by Michal Marcin Mioduszewski|{{sp — Lyrics
1. Dziļā pusnakts tumsā gaisma iedegās,
debess pulku balsis līksmi pacēlās.
Ganus viņi aicināja
steigties drīz pie Pestītāja,
tikko dzimuša.
2. Redzot gaišas liesmas, gani brīnījās,
dzirdot eņgļu dziesmas, ļoti iztrūkās.
Drebēdami ceļos krita,
aizsedza ar rokām sejas,
Kungu piesauca.
3. Kunga eņģel’s nāca, kvēli starodams,
ganus uzrunāja, līksmi sacīdams:
"Nebīstieties! Lielu prieku,

About Dziļā pusnakts tumsā (Wśród nocnej ciszy)
This sacred Christmas carol for SATB choir opens with a gentle sense of wonder, evoking the stillness of deep midnight. The music unfolds with a rich texture as the voices weave together, gradually building in warmth and intensity to express the joyous announcement of the Nativity. The text, sung in Latvian, tells the familiar story of the shepherds receiving the angelic message and their journey to the manger. The composer captures the awe and exultation of this pivotal moment, moving from the quietude of the night to the profound revelation of Christ's birth. It is a piece that beautifully combines devotional feeling with musical richness, suitable for Advent or Christmas services.
