The Twelve Days of Christmas

On the first day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
a partridge in a pear tree!
On the second day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the third day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the fourth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the fifth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
five golden rings!
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the sixth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
six geese a layin'
five golden rings!
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the seventh day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
seven swans a swimmin'
six geese a layin'
five golden rings!
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the eighth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
eight maids a milkin'
seven swans a swimmin'
six geese a layin'
five golden rings!
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the ninth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
nine pipers pipin'
eight maids a milkin'
seven swans a swimmin'
six geese a layin'
five golden rings!
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the tenth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
ten ladies dancin'
nine pipers pipin'
eight maids a milkin'
seven swans a swimmin'
six geese a layin'
five golden rings!
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the eleventh day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
eleven Lords a leapin'
ten ladies dancin'
nine pipers pipin'
eight maids a milkin'
seven swans a swimmin'
six geese a layin'
five golden rings!
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
On the twelfth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me.
..
twelve drummers drummin'
eleven Lords a leapin'
ten ladies dancin'
nine pipers pipin'
eight maids milkin'
seven swans a swimmin'
six geese a layin'
five golden rings!
four calling birds
three French hens
two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree!
