Song language: English
For the Twelfth Night |
Sing softly the cherries |
Red, red, sweet and good; |
Sing apples and oranges, |
The cinnamon food. |
Dance swiftly the cider, |
Spin more than you should; |
For liquor and laughter |
Will lighten your load. |
Declaim the roast turkey |
And riddle the sauce; |
Potatoes are stories |
Of riches and loss. |
Pipe merrily carrots, |
Drum beets till they bleed; |
They root down to darkness |
Who started as seed. |
Oh, candy the greetings |
You give to your guests; |
The wassail is fleeting |
And life ends in death. |
So taffy your handshake |
And ginger the kiss; |
Bake huggings like muffins |
A brave eucharist. |
Be feast for our Christmas |
And I’ll be the food; |
Beg Christ to assist us In everything good |
