A theorem of Donaldson on the existence of Hermitian-Einstein metrics on stable holomorphic bundles over a compact Kähler surface is extended to bundles which are parabolic along an effective divisor with normal crossings. Orbifold methods, together with a suitable approximation theorem, are used following an approach successful for the case of Riemann surfaces.
