A neighbour tipped his hat to me this mornin'
The landlord even smiled and said good-day
And I want you to know a stranger said hello
Christmas can't be far away
Old tight wad down the street is buying candy
To pass out to the neighbor kids at play
The town is on the go
The weather man said snow
Christmas can't be far away
The small fry on our block have all been saving
And now their hiding things and looking sly
Mum will get that doodad she's been craving
And Dad'll get his usual Christmas tie
Both young and old are planning sweet surprises
They'll soon be tied with ribbons bright and gay
Good will is in the air
You can feel it everywhere
Christmas can't be far away
Both young and old are planning sweet surprises
They'll soon be tied with ribbons bright and gay
Good will is in the air
You can feel it everywhere
Christmas can't be far away
Good will is in the air
You can feel it everywhere
Christmas can't be far away

Auld Lang Syne
03:41
|

Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should all acquaintance be forgot
And auld lang syng
And surely you will buy your cup
And surely I'll buy mine
And we'll take a cup o'kindness yet
For auld lang syne
We too have run by the slopes
And picked the daisies fine
We've londoned many weary foot
Since auld lang syne
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne
We too have paddled in the stream
From morning sun to night
But the seas between us broad have roared
From auld lang syne
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne

The cherry-tree carol
03:13
|
|||
When Joseph was an old man, an old man was he
He married Virgin Mary, the Queen of Galilee
He married Virgin Mary, the Queen of Galilee
Joseph and Mary walked through an orchard green
There were cherries and berries, as thick as might be seen
There were cherries and berries, as thick as might be seen
Mary said to Joseph, so meek and so mild:
Joseph, gather me some cherries, for I am with child
Joseph, gather me some cherries, for I am with child
Then Joseph flew in anger, in anger flew he
Let the father of the baby gather cherries for thee!
Let the father of the baby gather cherries for thee!
Then up spoke baby Jesus, from in Mary's womb:
Bend down the tallest branches, that my mother might have some
Bend down the tallest branches, that my mother might have some
And bend down the tallest branches, it touched Mary's hand
Cried she: Oh look thou Joseph, I have cherries by command
Oh look thou Joseph, I have cherries by command

Noël Blanc
01:20
|
|||
Oh! quand j'entends chanter Noël
J'aime à revoir mes joies d'enfant
Le sapin scintillant, la neige d'argent
Noël, mon beau rêve blanc
Oh! quand j'entends sonner au ciel
L'heure où le bon vieillard descend
Je revois tes yeux clairs, maman
Et je songe à d'autres Noëls blancs.

I'll be home for Christmas
You can plan on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the lovelight gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
I'll be home for Christmas
You can plan on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the lovelight gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

Jingle Bells
02:38
|
|||
Dashing through the snow,
in a one-horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go,
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bob tails ring,
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.
Now the ground is white,
Go it while you're young;
Take the girls tonight,
And sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bob tailed bay,
Two-forty as his speed,
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack! you'll take the lead.
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.

Blue Christmas
02:14
|
|||
I'll have a Blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue memories start calling
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas

Noël c'est l'amour
01:58
|

Noël c’est l’amour
Viens chanter toi mon frère
Noël c’est l’amour
C’est un cœur éternel
La voix de ma mère,
Sa voix familière
Chantait douce et claire
Un enfant est né
Des lumières dans la neige
Mille étoiles du berger
Et des hommes en cortège
Vont chanter la joie d’aimer
Noël c’est l’amour
Dans les yeux de l’enfance
Noël c’est l’amour
Le plus beau le plus fort
Un monde s’avance
D’un peu d’espérance
D’un ange qui danse
Auprès d’un enfant
Reviens moi mon frère
Et vois la lumière.
La nuit de lumière
Qui descend du ciel
Et moi sur la terre
J’entends douce et claire
La voix de ma mère
Qui chante Noël

Ô, Sainte-Nuit
02:48
|
|||
Douce nuit, sainte nuit,
Dans les cieux, l'astre luit.
Le mystère annoncé s'accomplit
Cet enfant sur la paille endormi
C'est l'amour infini
C'est l'amour infini.
Ô nuit d'amour, sainte nuit,
Dans l'étable, aucun bruit.
Sur la paille est couché l'enfant
Que la Vierge endort en chantant
Il repose en ses langes
Son Jésus ravissant.
Ô nuit d'espoir, sainte nuit,
L'espérance a relui
Le Sauveur de la terre est né,
C'est à nous que Dieu l'a donné.
Célébrons ses louanges,
Gloire au Verbe incarné.
Paix à tous, gloire au Ciel
Gloire au sein maternel
Qui pour nous en ce jour de Noël
Enfanta le Sauveur éternel
Qu'attendait Israël
Qu'attendait Israël.

The Holly and the Ivy
01:51
|
|||
The holly and the ivy,
When they are both full grown,
Of all the trees that are in the wood,
The holly bears the crown.
The rising of the sun
And the running of the deer,
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly bears a blossom,
As white as the lily flower,
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
To be our sweet Saviour.
The rising of the sun
And the running of the deer,
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly bears a berry,
As red as any blood,
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
For to do us sinners good.
The rising of the sun
And the running of the deer,
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly bears a prickle,
As sharp as any thorn,
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
On Christmas Day in the morn.
The rising of the sun
And the running of the deer,
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly bears a bark,
As bitter as any gall,
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
For to redeem us all.
The rising of the sun
And the running of the deer,
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly and the ivy,
When they are both full grown,
Of all the trees that are in the wood,
The holly bears the crown.
The rising of the sun
And the running of the deer,
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing in the choir.
