All hail to the winter king,
Our songs his praises sing,
Oh lightly, so lightly join our lay
We'll pass the wint'ry hours away.

The winter days are here,
The gayest of the year;
The tinkling, tinkling bells resound,
The silver snowflakes fall around

All hail to the winter king,
Our songs his praises sing,
Oh lightly, so lightly join our lay
We'll pass the wint'ry hours away.

O'er cottage tower and tree
A frozen mantle see,
The twinkling, the twinkling stars are bright,
WHile wint'ry joys our hearts delight.

Though keen the north wind blows
More bright the ingle glows;
Though summer birds and flowers depart
Now social joys their cheer impart,

O'er cottage tower and tree
A frozen mantle see,
The twinkling, the twinkling stars are bright,
WHile wint'ry joys our hearts delight.
