I wish you a Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
A pocket full of money
And a cellar full of beer!
Here's to us all,
God bless us every one!

Peace and plenty for many a Christmas to come.

At Christmas play and make good cheer
For Christmas comes but once a year.

Now, thrice welcome, Christmas!
Which brings us good cheer,
Mince pies and plum pudding-
Strong ale and strong beer!
Then here's to the heartening wassail,
Wherever good fellows are found;
Be its master instead of its vassal,
And order the glasses around.

Here's to holly and ivy hanging up,
And to something wet in every cup.
A Merry Christmas this December
To a lot of folks I don't remember.
May you never be without a drop at Christmas.

I wish you a Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
A pocket full of money
And a cellar full of beer!
I know I've wished you this before
But every year I wish it more,
A Merry Christmas.
Here's wishing you more happiness
Than all my words can tell,
Not just alone for Christmas
But for all the year as well.
Christmas is here,
Merry Old Christmas,
Gift-bearing, heart-touching, joy-brining Christmas,
Day of grand memorie, king of the year.
At Christmas play and make good cheer
For Christmas comes but once a year.

A Christmas wish -
May you never forget
what is worth remembering
or remember
what is best forgotten.
