If you've simplified your source, then I suppose you can't change the source to use proper keys, instead of relying on the position for a match. First you want to know your position in file1 <xsl:variable name="position" select="count(../../preceding-sibling::terms)"/> Then get the translated term <xsl:value-of select="document('file2.xml')//term[count(preceding-sibling::term) = $position]"/> For performance you want to replace the // walking with file2/translated, and also you might want to consider using keys: just use the preceding term sibling count as the key.
