English text
- Let's dance and sing and make good cheer,
- For Christmasse comes but once a year.
- Make merry now nor draw a tear,
- So early in the morning.
- Then shout and sing till rafters ring,
- For joy and mirth the seasons bring;
- We'll welcome Father Christmasse in,
- So early in the Morning.
