Hark how the bells, sweet silver bells,

all seem to say, throw cares away

Christmas is here, bringing good cheer,

to young and old, meek and the bold,

Ding dong ding dong that is their song

with joyful ring all caroling

One seems to hear words of good cheer

from everywhere filling the air

Oh how they pound, raising the sound,

o’er hill and dale, telling their tale,

Gaily they ring while people sing

songs of good cheer, Christmas is here,

Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,

Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,

On on they send, on without end,

their joyful tone to every home

Ding dong ding: dong!
