Στίχοι

Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O’er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Oh, 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

A day or two ago
I thought I’d take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot

Oh, 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 yeah

A day or two ago,
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow,
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh,
He laughed as there I sprawling lie,
But quickly drove away.

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 bobtailed 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

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town

He’s making a list,
Checking it twice;
Gonna find out who’s naughty or nice.
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you’re sleeping
He knows when you’re awake
He knows if you’ve been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town

With little tin horns
and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots
and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you’re sleeping
He knows when you’re awake
He knows if you’ve been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Goodness sake

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I’m telling you why

Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming to town

The 12 Days of Christmas

Σε κάθε μία από τις 12 στροφές του προστίθεται σταδιακά στους προηγούμενους και ένας ακόμα στίχος. Κάτι σαν το γνωστό μας ελληνικό “Κοκοράκι – όταν θα πάω κυρά μου στο παζάρι”. Πολύ διασκεδαστικό και μία πρόκληση για τις χορωδίες.

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight,
We’re happy tonight,
Walking in a winter wonderland.

Gone away is the bluebird,
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song,
As we go along,
Walking in a winter wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman,
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He’ll say: Are you married?
We’ll say: No man,
But you can do the job
When you’re in town.
Later on, we’ll conspire,
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid,
The plans that we’ve made,
Walking in a winter wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman,
Then pretend that he’s a circus clown
We’ll have lots of fun with mister snowman,
Until the other kiddies knock him down.

When it snows, ain’t it thrilling,
Though your nose gets a chilling
We’ll frolic and play, the Eskimo way,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
We’ll frolic and play, the Eskimo way,
Walking in a winter wonderland.

Joy to the World, the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven, and Heaven, and nature sing.

Joy to the World, the Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.

No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse is found.

He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders, of His love.

Deck the Halls

Το δεύτερο τραγούδι αυτής της λίστας που είναι κοσμικό, δηλαδή δεν έχει καμία θρησκευτική προέλευση. Είναι, βέβαια, αρκετά παλιό για να το θεωρήσουμε παραδοσιακό, μιας και γράφτηκε το 1700.

1. Jolly old St. Nicholas, lean your ear this way!
Don’t you tell a single soul what I’m going to say.
Christmas Eve is coming soon! Now, you dear old man.
Whisper what you’ll bring to me; Tell me if you can.

2. When the clock is striking twelve. When I’m fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad and black, with your pack you’ll creep.
All the stockings you will see hanging in a row;
Mine will be the shortest ones – you’ll be sure to know.

3. Johnny wants a pair of skates, Susy wants a dolly,
Nelly wants a story book – she thinks dolls a folly.
As for me, my little brain never was the wisest.
Choose for me, old Santa Claus, what you think is nicest.

Of all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown.

5. The holly bears a bark as bitter as any gall,
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ for to redeem us all.

    The playing of the merry organ, sweet singing in the choir.

6. The holly and the ivy, now both are full well grown,
Of all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown.

Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree

Το “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” είναι ένα αγαπημένο χριστουγεννιάτικο τραγούδι της δεκαετίας του 1950, το οποίο έγινε τεράστια επιτυχία αρχικά από την Brendan Lee.

Τα λόγια και η μουσική ανήκουν στον Johnny Marks, έναν Εβραίο τραγουδοποιό γνωστό για τη συνεισφορά του στη μουσική των γιορτών. Παρόλο που ο ίδιος δεν γιόρτασε ποτέ τα Χριστούγεννα, ο Marks έγραψε μερικά από τα πιο εμβληματικά χριστουγεννιάτικα τραγούδια, επιδεικνύοντας μια μοναδική ικανότητα να “πιάνει” το εορταστικό πνεύμα στις συνθέσεις του.

I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day

Το “I heard the bells on Christmas Day” είναι ένα χριστουγεννιάτικο τραγούδι βασισμένο στο ποίημα του 1863 «Χριστουγεννιάτικες καμπάνες» του Αμερικανού ποιητή Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Ο John Baptiste Calkin, ένας Άγγλος οργανίστας, μελοποίησε το ποίημα και η εκδοχή του ήταν για καιρό το σημείο αναφοράς, μέχρι που ο Johnny Marks έγραψε την νέα, πιο γνωστή πλέον, μουσική το 1956.

1. I heard the bells on Christmas Day
their old, familiar carols play,
and wild and sweet, the words repeat
of peace on earth, good-will to men!

And thought as now this day had come,
the belfries of all Christendom
had rolled along, the unbroken song
of peace on earth, good-will to men!

2. And in despair I bowed my head;
“There is no peace on earth,” I said;
“For hate is strong, and mocks the song
of peace on earth, good-will to men!”

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The Wrong shall fail, the Right prevail,
with peace on earth, good-will to men.”

O Come, All Ye Faithful

Το “O Come, All Ye Faithful” (“Adeste Fideles” στα λατινικά) είναι ένα από τα πιο εμβληματικά και διαχρονικά χριστουγεννιάτικα τραγούδια, που φημίζεται για τη δυνατή μελωδία και τους εγκάρδιους στίχους του που προσκαλούν τους πιστούς να γιορτάσουν τη γέννηση του Χριστού.
