Gift Of The Magi |
| Jim: My heart is sad, my soul is weary |
| Though Christmas day is fast appear |
| I have no silver I have no gold |
| To buy my wife a gift this year |
| To see her sad on Christmas morning |
| Is a thing I cannot bear |
| I’ll pawn the watch my father gave me |
| To buy a come for her hair |
| Katharine: |
| Oh Mother, Mother what shall I do? |
| Though Christmas day is fast appear |
| I have no silver I have no gold |
| To buy my love a gift this year |
| For I am poor and I’m a beggar |
| Not a cent have I, no dime I claim |
| I’ll trade the golden hair that is our pleasure |
| Buy for your watch a golden chain |
| Jim: |
| Darling, darling today is Christmas |
| What has become of your golden hair |
| For I’ve traded our only treasure |
| These silver combs for you to wear |
| Katharine: |
| Darling, darling we’ve lost our treasure |
| My gift to you is a golden chain |
| Though we’ve pawned away our only pleasures |
| These gifts we give are not in vain |
| All: |
| The wise men came on Christmas morning |
| Their gifts of love they came to bear |
| From that day on always remembered |
| Our own true love forever share |
