Sviket

(original)
Men Judas vender ofte hodet vekk
Fra Brødrene, slår ofte blikket ned
En ugjort gjerning venter ham et sted
Og fyller hjertet med en unklar skrekk
Den blinde skjebne fletter om hans navn
For alle tider skammens tornekrans
Snart skal hans føtter trå en luftig dans
Og kroppen by seg til for gribb og ravn
Snart skal det skje.
Bestemt fra evighet
Er Mesterens befaling: Gjør det fort
Og så - skjærtorsdag aften — går han bort
Til svikets æreløse rettersted
(translation)
But Judas often turns his head away
From the Brethren, often look down
An undone deed awaits him somewhere
And fills the heart with an obscure fear
The blind fate weaves around his name
For all time the wreath of shame
Soon his feet will tread an airy dance
And the body offers itself for vultures and ravens
It will happen soon.
Determined from eternity
Is the Master's command: Do it quickly
And then - Maundy Thursday night - he passes away
To the dishonorable court of betrayal
