Choral version

Carol of the Bells

 

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.

 

O, how they pound,

Raising the sound,

O'er hill and dale,

Telling their tale,

 

Sweetly 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  

Large Carol of the Bells

So Long, Farewell - This song is sung by all classes

    There’s a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall

    And the bells in the steeple too,

    And up in the nurs-ry and absurd little bird

    Is popping out to say “coo-coo.”


Cuckcoo, cuckoo

Cuckcoo, cuckoo

Cuckoo, to you


Regretfully they tell us,

But firmly they compel us

To say goodbye to you.


So long, farewell,

Auf wiedersehn, goodnight,


I hate to go and leave this pretty sight.


So long, farewell,

Auf wiedersehn, adieu,


Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu.


So long, farewell, Au’voir,

Auf wiedersehn,

I’d like to stay and finish out the day.


So long, farewell,

Auf viedersehn, goodbye,


I leave and heave a sigh and say goodbye, goodbye.


I’m glad to go, I cannot tell a lie.


I flit, I float, I fleetly flee, I fly.


The sun has gone to bed and so much I.


So long, farewell,

Auf wiedersehn, goodbye;

Goodbye,

Goodbye,

Goodbye!
