Deck the halls with boughs of holly. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Tis the season to be jolly. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Don we now our gay apparel. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Troll the ancient Yule tide carol. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! See the blazing Yule before us. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Strike the harp and join the chorus. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Follow me in merry measure. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! While I tell of Yule tide treasure. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Fast away the old year passes. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Hail the new, ye lads and lasses. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Sing we joyous, all together. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Heedless of the wind and weather. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la!

Adorns the hall with holly branches. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Closes the federal government to a joyful dance. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Time to celebrate it is again. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Sing the old Christmas carols. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! See the red log in the fire. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Christmas was finally this year. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! Rotates and soars you in the dance Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la! in the bright lights of glory. Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la!
