Holiday Guide
Deck the Halls
It’s hard to hear “Deck the Halls” and not immediately be overcome by the festive
nature of the holiday season. The lyrics to “Deck the Halls” were written by the
Scottish musician Thomas Oliphant in 1862, and the song many people know today
is a traditional Christmas carol. However, the Welsh melody that is part of the
song can be traced to the 16th century and a song called “Nos Galan.” That song is
not about Christmas, but rather New Year’s Eve.
“Deck the Halls”
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.
Fill the meadcup, drain the barrel,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Troul the ancient Christmas carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
See the fl owing bowl 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 sing of beauty’s 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.
Laughing, quaffi ng 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.
