The Twelve Days of Christmas歌词
Loreena McKennitt - In Praise Of Christmas Traditional English, arranged by Loreena McKennitt All hail to the days that merit more praise Than all of the rest of the year, And welcome the nights that double delights As well for the poor as the peer! Good fortune attend each merry man's friend That doth but the best that he may, Forgetting old wrongs with carols and songs To drive the cold winter away. 'Tis ill for a mind to anger inclined To think of small injuries now, If wrath be to seek, do not lend her thy cheek, Nor let her inhabit thy brow. Cross out thy books malevolent looks, Both beauty and youth's decay, And wholly consort with mirth and with sport To drive the cold winter away. This time of the year is spent in good cheer, And neighbours together do meet, To sit by the fire, with friendly desire, Each other in love to greet.
