Text:
On December twenty-fifth, sing fum, fum, fum!
On December twenty-fifth, sing fum, fum, fum!
He is born of God's pure love, The Son of God, the Son of God!
He is born of Virgin Mary in this night so cold and dreary,
Fum, fum, fum!

Birds who live in ev'ry forest, fum, fum, fum!
Birds who live in ev'ry forest, fum, fum, fum!
You must leave your fledglings on the bough,
Must leave your fledglings now;
For to make a downy nest, So the newborn Babe may rest.
Fum, fum, fum!

All the brilliant stars in heaven, fum, fum, fum!
All the brilliant stars in heaven, fum, fum, fum!
Looking down see Jesus crying, see Him crying, see Him cry;
Send away the darkness lightly,
Shine your light upon us brightly,
Fum, fum, fum.
