Colinde - Jingle Bells (James Pierpont, 1857)

Dashing through the snow


On a one-horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bobtail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.
Hey, 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;
He got into a drifted bank
And we got upshot.
Hey, 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
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.
Hey, 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.
Hey, Jingle Bells
Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
O Christmas Tree

Your boughs, so green in summer time,
Do brave the snow of winter time,
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
O tree of green unchanging.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You set my heart a singing.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You set my heart a singing.
Like little stars, your candles bright,
Send to the world a wondrous sight.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You set my heart a singing.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You come from God, eternal.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You come from God, eternal.
A symbol of the Lord of Love,
Whom God to man sent from above
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You come from God, eternal.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You speak of God unchanging.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You speak of God unchanging.
You tell us all to faithful be,
And trust God eternally,
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
You speak of God unchanging.
