Sing Jingle bells!



 


Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh,
Over the fields we go,
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bob-tail ring,
They make our spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight, 

O Jingle bells, jingle bells,
jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
jingle all the way!
O 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;
Mis fortune seemed his lot;
He got into a drifted bank,
And we, we got upset. 
Jingle bells…. (припев)

Now the ground is white
So go it while you're young,
Take the girls tonight
And sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bob-tailed bay
Two-forty as his speed
Then hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack! you'll take the lead, 



Jingle bells… (припев)


Пробираясь сквозь снег
На открытых санях, запряжённых лошадкой,
Мы едем средь полей,
Всю дорогу смеясь.
Колокольчики на санях звенят,
И на душе становится светлее.
Как это здорово: ехать на санях и петь
Об этом песню! О!!!

Звените, колокольчики,
Звените всю дорогу!
Как это здорово: ехать
На открытых санях, запряжённых лошадкой!
Звените, колокольчики,
Звените всю дорогу!
Как это здорово: ехать
На открытых санях, запряжённых лошадкой!

Пару дней назад,
Я вздумал прокатиться,
И вскоре Мисс Фэнни Брайт
Сидела рядом со мной.
Лошадка была тощей,
Казалось, несчастье - её удел.
И она застряла в сугробе,
А мы - перевернулись, о!!!

Припев…

Земля устлана белым покровом,
Так давайте, пока молоды,
Возьмите с собой подружек
И вместе спойте эту песню.
Возьмите быстроногую гнедую
С подстриженным хвостом,
Впрягите её в открытые сани
И вы добьетесь своего, о!!!

Припев…

Carol of the bels

This year we celebrate 100 year anniversory of a famous Ukrainian song Shchedryk which became the Christmas hit all over the world!
http://videochart.net/video/4y109.3923954501e1bec066721b3ff8f4
Hark how the bells, 
sweet silver bells, 
all seem to say
throw cares away. 
Christmas is here, 
bringing good cheer, 
to young and old, 
meek and the bold, 
Ding dong ding dong 
that is their song 
with joyful ring 
all carolling. 
One seems to hear 
words of good cheer 
from everywhere 
filling the air. 
Oh how they pound, 
raising the sound, 
o’er hill and dale, 
telling their tale, 
Gaily they ring 
while people sing 
songs of good cheer, 
Christmas is here, 
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas, 
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas, 
On on they send, 
on without end, 
their joyful tone 
to every home 
Ding dong ding… dong!

Christmas carols




Christmas Day, December 25, is probably the most popular holiday in Great Britain. It is a family holiday. Traditionally all relatives and friends give each other presents. So, before Christmas all the department stores and shops are crowded, everybody is choosing a present.In general, people get prepared for this holiday very carefully. They decorate their houses in the traditional way. Christmas trees are set up in houses, in the streets and churches. They are always decorated with fairy lights, angels and small toys. In addition, little packets with nuts, candies and special biscuits are hung on the tree. Presents are put around the tree and artificial «frost» is scattered over the branches.The Germans are believed to be the first to use the Christmas tree in their celebrations and Martin Luther was the first to place a star on the top of the tree. This star represents the star appeared over the stable in which Christ was born.In Great Britain, the Christmas tree became popular while Queen Victoria ruled the country.Besides the Christmas tree, holly and mistletoe are used to decorate the house. Branches of holly are put up behind pictures and mistletoe is hung over doors, so the young people have a chance to kiss the girls under it, plucking each time a red berry from the mistletoe. It is said that the girl who was not kissed under it at Christmas would not get married that year.On the eve of Christmas children hang their stockings, so that Santa Claus could put presents into them: oranges, sweets, nuts and if the child didn't behave properly Santa Claus can put there a piece of coal as punishment.
Santa Claus got his name from a man known as St. Nicolas, who lived in the fourth century. He gave his wealth to the poor and often to children. After he died, the Dutch brought this legend to colonial America. Soon the Dutch name Sinter Klaus became Santa Claus.Carol singing is an essential part of Christmas. No church or school is without its carol service. Carols may be traditional or with some variations that express different feelings. Carols were used for the first time during Christmas in the fifteenth century.Usually children come around in the evening to the front doors and start singing carols and people who live in these houses give children candies, nuts, pies and so on, to thank them for carol singing.A typical Christmas lunch includes turkey with cranberry sauce and pudding. Every young woman in each household helps to stir the Christmas pudding, if she wishes to be married that year. Usually a coin or two are hidden inside the pudding and part of the fun is to see who finds it.After the lunch they go to the sitting room to listen to the Christmas speech of the Queen, shown on TV.So, Christmas is a merry family holiday for all the people of Great Britain. Christmas comes but once a year.
