All hail to the days that merit more praise
Than all 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 your cheek
Nor let her inhabit thy brow.
Cross out of thy books malevolent looks,
Both beauty and youth's decay,
And wholly consort with mirth and 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.
Old grudges forgot are put in the pot,
All sorrows aside they lay,
The old and the young doth carol this song,
To drive the cold winter away.

When Christmas's tide comes in a like a bride,
With holly and ivy clad,
Twelve days in the year much mirth and good cheer
In every household is had.
The country guise is then to devise
Some gambols of Christmas play,
Whereat the young men do the best that they can
To drive the cold winter away.



Mirror lyrics:


To drive the cold winter away.
Whereat the young men do the best that they can
Some gambols of Christmas play,
The country guise is then to devise
In every household is had.
Twelve days in the year much mirth and good cheer
With holly and ivy clad,
When Christmas's tide comes in a like a bride,

To drive the cold winter away.
The old and the young doth carol this song,
All sorrows aside they lay,
Old grudges forgot are put in the pot,
Each other in love to greet.
To sit by the fire, with friendly desire,
And neighbours together do meet,
This time of the year is spent in good cheer

To drive the cold winter away.
And wholly consort with mirth and sport
Both beauty and youth's decay,
Cross out of thy books malevolent looks,
Nor let her inhabit thy brow.
If wrath be to seek, do not lend her your cheek
To think of small injuries now,
Tis ill for a mind to anger inclined

To drive the cold winter away.
Forgetting old wrongs with carols and songs
That doth but the best that he may,
Good fortune attend each merry man's friend
As well for the poor as the peer!
And welcome the nights that double delights
Than all the rest of the year,
All hail to the days that merit more praise
