XIII. Deck the Halls (Nos Galan, 16th century)
Trad. Welsh; Text by Thomas Oliphant (1799–1873)
Deck the halls with boughs of holly (Fa la la la la….)
'Tis the season to be jolly
Don we now our gay apparel
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol
See the blazing yule before us (Fa la la la la….)
Strike the harp and join the chorus
Follow me in merry measure
While I tell of Yuletide treasure
Fast away the old year passes (Fa la la la la….)
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses
Sing we joyous all together
Heedless of the wind and weather
