Testi di Natale: tre canzoni per la festa più bella dell’anno

Ancora testi di Natale, ancora pronti a cantare in ricordo della più bella festa dell’anno. Ecco delle canzoni famose, che tutti conosciamo, di cui vi riportiamo le parole:

The Christmas Song

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose,
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa’s on his way –
He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And ev’rymother’s child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
and so I’m offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although its been said many times,
Many ways: “Merry Christmas to you”
(Repeat) (from 9th line)

Deck The Halls

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

‘Tis the season to be jolly

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Don we now our gay apparel

Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.

Troll the ancient Yule-tide carol

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

See the blazing Yule before us.

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Strike the harp and join the chorus.

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Follow me in merry measure.

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

While I tell of Yule-tide treasure.

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Fast away the old year passes.

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Hail the new year, lads and lasses

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Sing we joyous, all together.

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

heedless of the wind and weather.

Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Jolly Old Saint Nicolas

Jolly old Saint 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.

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 find

hanging in a row

Mine will be the shortest one,

you’ll be sure to know

Bobby wants a pair of skates,

Suzy wants a sled

Nellie wants a picture book,

yellow, blue, and red

Now I think I’ll leave to you

what to give the rest

Choose for me, dear Santa Claus;

you will know the best.
