Here are the lyrics to the Christmas Carol “Dormi Dormi” which translates into English as “Sleep, Sleep”. This carol is a beautiful Italian tune that is sung in the winter time.

Re divin, Re divin.
Fa la nanna, o fantolino,
Re divin, Re divin.
Fa la nana, o fantolino.
Refrain:
Fa la la la, Fa la la la la, Fa la la la,
Fa la , Fa la, Fa la, Fa la.
Perche piangi, o mio tresor?
Dolce amor, dolce amor!
Fa la nanna, o caro figlio,
Tanto bel, tanto bel,
Fa la nanna, o caro figlio.

Listen to the choir sing it live to hear how it goes:
Lyrics to the Christmas Song (and why not New Year song!!?) Baby It’s Cold Outside!
I really can’t stay – Baby it’s cold outside
I’ve got to go away – Baby it’s cold outside
This evening has been – Been hoping that you’d drop in
So very nice – I’ll hold your hands, they’re just like ice
My mother will start to worry – Beautiful, what’s your hurry
My father will be pacing the floor – Listen to the fireplace roar
So really I’d better scurry – Beautiful, please don’t hurry
Well Maybe just a half a drink more – Put some music on while I pour
The neighbors might think – Baby, it’s bad out there
Say, what’s in this drink – No cabs to be had out there
I wish I knew how – Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell – I’ll take your hat, your hair looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no, sir – Mind if I move a little closer
At least I’m gonna say that I tried – What’s the sense in hurting my pride
I really can’t stay – Baby don’t hold out
Ahh, but it’s cold outside
I simply must go – Baby, it’s cold outside
The answer is no – Ooh baby, it’s cold outside
This welcome has been – I’m lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm — Look out the window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious – Man, your lips look so delicious
My brother will be there at the door – Waves upon a tropical shore
My maiden aunt’s mind is vicious – Gosh your lips look delicious
Well maybe just a half a drink more – Never such a blizzard before
I’ve got to go home – Oh, baby, you’ll freeze out there
Say, lend me your comb – It’s up to your knees out there
You’ve really been grand – Your eyes are like starlight now
But don’t you see – How can you do this thing to me
There’s bound to be talk tomorrow – Making my life long sorrow
At least there will be plenty implied – If you caught pneumonia and died
I really can’t stay – Get over that old out
Ahh, but it’s cold outside
Lyrics to the Christmas Song Rockin around the Christmas Tree as originally sung by Brenda Lee in 1958.
christmas tree get ready to rock!
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
at the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear voices singing
Let’s be jolly;
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone’s dancing merrily
In a new old fashioned way
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Let the Christmas Spirit ring
Later we’ll have some pumpkin pie
and we’ll do some caroling
christmas tree
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear voices singing
Let’s be jolly;
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rocking around the Christmas Tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone’s dancing merrily
English lyrics to the Christmas Carol I saw three Ships. This is an incredibly popular English christmas carol made by many different artists – you’ll instantly recognize the tune even if you don’t recognize the name of the carol!
I saw three ships come sailing in,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
I saw three ships come sailing in,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?
The Virgin Mary and Christ were there
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
The virgin Mary and Christ were there
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Pray, whither sailed those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
Pray, whither sailed those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?
O they sailed into Bethelem,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
O they sailed into Bethelem,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And all the souls on earth shall sing,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the souls on earth shall sing,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Then let us all rejoice amain,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
Then let us all rejoice amain,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Bells over Bethlehem pealing,
God’s sacred presence revealing!
There in a cradle is resting
Jesus, the earth’s richest blessing!
Refrain:
The bells, the bells of Bethlehem
Are ringing out the tidings,
“good will to all men!”
Leave your sheep and come,
O shepherds, presents bring the Babe so lowly,
Bring some cheese and bring some wine
For the Mother Mary holy.
The bells, the bells of Bethlehem
Are ringing out the tidings,
“Good will to all men!”
Shepherds, if you will but hasten,
Mary the beautiful Virgin,
May grant that you may be keeping
Watch o’er the dear Baby sleeping.
Refrain
Here the song in Spanish version:
Campana sobre campana
Campana sobre campana!
Asomatea la ventana
Veras a un Nino en la cuna.
Estribillo:
“Belen, campana de Belen,
Que los angeles tocan
Que nuevas me traois?”
Recogido tu rebano
A donde vas pastorcito
Voy a llevar al portal
Requeson, man teca y vino.
“Belen, campanas de Belen,
Que los angeles tocan,
Que nuevas traois?”
Si aun las estrellas alumbran,
Pastor, donde quieres ir?
Voy al portal por si el Nino
Con El me deja dormir.
