It Was On A Fine Summer's Morning
It Was On A Fine Summer's Morning (aka Pretty Maid Milking A Cow)
Composer(s): Caelin Deas; Thomas Moore
It was on a fine summer's morning
When the birds sweetly tuned on each bough
I heard a fair maid sing most charming
As she sat a-milking her cow
Her voice, it was chanting melodious
She left me scarce able to go
My heart it is soothed in solace
My Cailín deas crúite na mbó
With courtesy I did salute her
"Good-morrow, most amiable maid
I'm your captive slave for the future"
"Kind sir, do not banter," she said
"I'm not such a precious rare jewel
That I should enamour you so
I am but a plain country girl"
Says Cailín deas crúite na mbó
"The Indies afford no such jewel
So precious and transparently fair
Oh! do not to my flame add fuel
But consent for to love me, my dear
Take pity and grant my desire
And leave me no longer in woe
Oh! love me or else I'll expire
Sweet Cailín deas crúite na mbó"
"Or had I the wealth of great Damer
Or all on the African shore
Or had I great Devonshire treasure
Or had I ten thousand times more
Or had I the lamp of Alladin
Or had I his genie also
I'd rather live poor on a mountain
With Cailín deas crúite na mbó"
"I beg you'll withdraw and don't tease me
I cannot consent unto thee
I like to live single and airy
Till more of the world I do see
New cares they would me embarrass
Besides, sir, my fortune is low
Until I get rich I'll not marry"
Says Cailín deas crúite na mbó
"An old maid is like an old almanack
Quite useless when once out of date
If her ware is not sold in the morning
At noon it must fall to low rate
The fragrance of May is soon over
The rose loses its beauty, you know
All bloom is consumed in October
Sweet Cailín deas crúite na mbó"
"A young maid is like a ship sailing
There's no knowing how long she may steer
For with every blast she's in danger
Oh! consent, love, and banish all care
For riches I care not a farthing
Your affection I want and no more
In comfort I'd wish to enjoy you
My Cailín deas crúite na mbó.."

Augustus Caesar Having Brought
Augustus Caesar Having Brought
Augustus Caesar having brought
The world to quiet peace
That all the noise of bloody wars
In every land did cease
Just Joseph, with his Mary mild
To Bethlehem did come
Which blessed place appointed was
To ease her burden'd womb
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
Then, all the town being full of guests
Such was their helpless case
That not a bed for them was left
Nor any lodging place
But in a poor and simple inn
Even an ox's stall
Appointed was to entertain
The Saviour of us all
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
No mantle, nor no rich attire
No swaddling bands, nor linen rare
No costly robes, nor golden treasure
Could Jesus Christ our Lord have there
No other nurse nor lullaby
But blessed Mary's arms
To rock this blessed babe to sleep
With heavenly hymns and charms
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
Thus was the Son of God not born
In majesty and state
As Princes of the Nations be
Tho' he a Prince most great
Yet at his blessed birth the choirs
Of heavenly Angels sing
And every thing for Jury's King
Rejoiced with thanksgiving
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
O Holy, Holy, Lord of Hosts
This was their joy and mirth
Which sounded out on every coast
For Jesus Christ his birth
Both Cherubim, and Seraphim
With all the Hosts of Heaven
With joyful voice sang praises forth
To glorify this even
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
And when that blessed morning came
That God's dear Son was born
A glorious Star with blazing beams
Did all the skies adorn
Which unto Shepherds in the fields
The first of all appear'd
A voice likewise came down from Heaven
And thus the Shepherds cheer'd
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
This tide is born in Bethlehem
A Saviour, and a King
Whose merits shall redeem the world
And man's salvation bring
All glory be to God on high
And peace on Earth to all
And goodwill still be unto men
This was the Angel's call
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
This Star did not alone appear
Unto the Shepherds poor
But to the sages of the world
To make their glory more
Who came conducted by the Star
From countries far from thence
And there presented at his feet
Gold, myrrh, and frankincense
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
The which when cruel Herod heard
Of this great homage done
By the three Wise Men of the East
To Mary's blessed Son
He sent throughout all Jury land
To have this infant slain
With every one of two years old
And none did there remain
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
Then Bethlehem grew red with blood
And white with infants' bones
That nought was heard in Jury's land
But childless mothers' moans
Yet Mary's babe, by Heaven preserv'd
Escaped their bloody rage
And liv'd in Egypt, till he came
To the term of twelve years of age
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
Even as the Angel did appoint
His parents did back return
And with their Son in Jury's land
In safety did sojourn
But Herod's death by judgment strange
Before the time befell
Whose bowells brake and did burst out
As ancient stories tell
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace
Then Jesus Christ, at twelve years old
In Jury began to preach
And to the sages of the land
Of Moses' laws did teach
And afterwards for twenty years
He oft did fast and pray
Till cursed Judas with a kiss
Sweet Jesus did betray
O sing we all, with heart and voice
Let Christian love increase
For unto us this day is born
The only Prince of Peace

Au Royaume Du Bonhomme Hiver

(Adapted from - Winter Wonderland - 1934)
(Danish Version: Et Vinterhvidt Vidunderland - 1978)
Composer(s): Richard B. Smith; Felix Bernard
Performer(s): Roch Voisine - 2000
Écoutez les clochettes
Du joyeux temps des fêtes
Annonçant la joie
Dans chaque cœur qui bat
Au royaume du bonhomme hiver
Sous la neige qui tombe
Le traîneau vagabonde
Semant tout autour
des chansons d'amour
Au royaume du bonhomme hiver
Le voilà qui sourit sur la place
Son chapeau, sa canne et son foulard
Il semble nous dire d'un ton bonace
Ne voyez-vous donc pas qu'il est en tard
Il dit vrait tout de même
Près du feu, je t'emmène
Allons nous chauffer dans l'intimité
Au royaume du bonhomme hiver

It Was I
It Was I
Composer(s): Gary Paxton
Performer(s): Lindsey Buckingham
and multiple other artists
You're telling everybody I'm the one
To blame for all the wrong that you have done
The day that you walked out and left
Didn't say goodbye
Who was left alone to sit and cry?
It was I
It was I
I gave you everything I ever had
The only things I got from you were bad
The times you didn't show up
The times you didn't call
Who was left alone with it all?
It was I
It was I
My love was always yours
To treasure and to hold
If you let a love go by
It will soon grow cold
Temptation is too strong to hide
Are you really satisfied
With my love the way it is?
Let me tell you how it is
So please come back and try to start anew
I know that it's the proper thing to do
Darlin', if we make up
I know we'll never break up
Then I know it's only me and you
Me and you
Me and you

At Christmas (Hanson)
At Christmas
Composer(s): Isaac Hanson; Taylor Hanson; Zachary Hanson
Performer(s): Hanson
Snows falling down as you step out of your car
Presents in your arms and you've traveled far
Someone opens the door with a smile on their face
And you know you've come to the right place
Family nestled by the fire
Christmas hopes to inspire
Loved ones by your side
You know you'll kiss your babies goodnight
At Christmas, Christmas
No matter who you are, how far you've come
This is where you belong
At Christmas
Memories round the Christmas tree
Are the sweetest ones that remain with me
It's a comfort deep inside, though you can't stop the race of
time
To know that Christmas will always be
Family nestled by the fire
A Christmas hope will be inspired
Loved ones by your side
You know you'll kiss your baby goodnight
At Christmas, Christmas
No matter who you are how far you've come
This is where you belong, where you belong
At Christmas
Can't you feel it changin'
Sense the anticipation
You can tell we're almost there
Precious time we're takin'
Memories we're makin'
There's Christmas in the air
Now this is what Christmas means to me
Being together with your family
And the wise men who followed that star
To where our baby Jesus lay
Family nestled all around
Baby Jesus asleep so sound
And his star shines so bright
On that very first holy night
At Christmas, Christmas
No matter who you are how far you've come
This is where you belong
At Christmas, Christmas

It Was Always Always You
It Was Always Always You
Composer(s): Debra Clinger; Ardie Tillman; Jacquie Wiseman
Performer(s): Rock Flowers
Hey boy, I wanted to tell you
Something nice to know in your head
Some night when you're really lonely
You may need something more than I said
I know you won't come near me
I know you're still gonna leave
Don't go, until you hear me
Don't go, until you believe
It was always, always you
Nobody else but you
It was always, always you
Nobody else but you
Hey boy, you think I'm crazy
No lies, I swear it's all true
Don't run, 'cause it's not easy
After all the scenes we've been through
Someday you'll love somebody
And you won't know what to do
You'll feel the way that I'm feeling
You'll say what I'm saying to you
It was always, always you
Nobody else but you
It was always, always you
Nobody else but you
It was always, always you
Nobody else but you

At Christmas
At Christmas
Composer(s): Mabel Caroline Bjornstad; Terry Kluytmans
How busy Santa's elves must be
Making toys for you and me
Dolls and drums and other things!
Oh, what joy our Christmas brings!
At Christmas, Santa packs his sleigh
Then sets out upon his way
Taking presents 'round the world
For good little boys and girls
On Christmas morn, when I arise
I cannot believe my eyes!
Santa must have heard my prayer
There's a puppy on the stair!

It Was Almost Like A Song
It Was Almost Like A Song
Composer(s): Hal David; Archie Jordan
Performer(s): Ronnie Milsap
and multiple other artists
Once in every life
Someone comes along
And you came to me
It was almost like a song
You were in my arms
Right where you belong
And we were so in love
It was almost like a song
January through December
We had such a perfect year
Then the flame became a dying ember
All at once you weren't here
Now my broken heart
Cries for you each night
And It's almost like a song
But it's much too sad to write
Now my broken heart
Cries for you each night
And It's almost like a song
But it's much too sad to write
It's too sad to write

As Lately We Watched
As Lately We Watched
As lately we watch'd o'er our fields thro' the night
A star there was seen of such glorious light
All thro' the night, angels did sing
Carols so sweet of the birth of a King
A King of such beauty was ne'er before seen
And Mary His mother so like a queen
Blessed be the hour, welcome the morn
For Christ our dear Saviour on earth now is born
His throne is a manger, His court is a loft
But troops of bright angels, in lays sweet and soft
Him they proclaim, our Christ by name
And earth, sky and air straight are filled with his fame
Then shepherds, be joyful; salute your new King
Let hills and vales ring to the song that ye sing
Blessed be the hour, welcome the morn
For Christ our dear Saviour on earth now is born

It Was A Very Good Year
It Was A Very Good Year
((French Versions: Ma Plus Belle Année (Romuald) - 1963; C'était Une Très Bonne Année (Robert Charlebois) - 2001))
Composer(s): Ervin Drake
First release by: The Kingston Trio - 1961
Covered by multiple other artists
When I was seventeen
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for small town girls
And soft summer nights
We'd hide from the lights
On the village green
When I was seventeen
When I was twenty-one
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for city girls
Who lived up the stair
With all that perfumed hair
And it came undone
When I was twenty-one
When I was thirty-five
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls
Of independent means
We'd ride in limousines
Their chauffeurs would drive
When I was thirty-five
But now the days grow short
I'm in the autumn of the year
And now I think of my life as vintage wine
From fine old kegs
From the brim to the dregs
And it poured sweet and clear
It was a very good year
It was a mess of good years

Arre, Burro, Arre
Arre, Burro, Arre
En la puerta de mi casa
voy a poner un petardo
"pa" reírme del que venga
a pedir el aguinaldo
Pues si voy a dar a todo
el que pide en noche buena
yo si que voy a tener
que pedir de puerta en puerta
Arre borriquito, arre burro arre
anda más deprisa que llegamos tarde
Arre borriquito vamos a Belén
que mañana es fiesta

Que el que quiera comer pan
que no venga a mi cena
en el portal de Belén
la Virgen es panadera
Pues si voy a dar a todo
el que pide en noche buena
yo si que voy a tener
que pedir de puerta en puerta
*Estribillo*
En el cielo hay una Estrella
que a los Reyes Magos guía
hacia Belén para ver
a Dios hijo de María
Cuando pasan los monarcas
sale la gente al camino
y a Belén se van con ellos
para ver al tierno Niño
*Estribillo*
En la puerta de mi casa
voy a poner un petardo
"pa" reírme del que venga
a pedir el aguinaldo
Pues si voy a dar a todo
el que pide en noche buena
yo si que voy a tener
que pedir de puerta en puerta

Performer(s): Robert Charlebois - 2001
Quand j'avais 17 ans
C'était une très bonne année, c'était une très bonne année
Pour les filles de la ville et les douces nuits d'été
Nous nous cachions des lumières sur la place du village
Quand j'avais 17 ans
Quand j'avais 21 ans
C'était une très bonne année, c'était une très bonne année
Pour les filles des grandes villes qui vivaient dans des immeubles
Qui se parfumaient les cheveux et les détachaient
Quand j'avais 21 ans
Quand j'avais 35 ans
C'était une très bonne année, c'était une très bonne année
Pour les filles au sang bleu, aux moyens indépendants
Nous roulions en limousine, leurs chauffeurs les conduisaient
Quand j'avais 35 ans
Maintenant les jours se font courts, je suis dans l'automne de l'année
Et maintenant je compare ma vie à un vin de bon cru
Sorti de vieux tonneaux subtils de la première goutte jusqu'à la lie
Qui se déversaient sucrés et clairs
C'était une très bonne année, c'était tant de bonnes années gâchées

por templo un portal
Arre borriquito

Esta noche con la luna
y mañana con el sol
a Belén caminaremos
a ver pronto al Niño Dios
Vamos, pastores, vamos
vamos a Belén
a ver a ese Niño
las glorias del Edén

Performer(s): Romuald - 1963
Quand j'avais 17 ans
C'était ma plus belle année
C'était ma plus belle année
Les filles gardaient leur premier baiser
Pour un soir d'été sous un ciel tremblant
Quand j'avais 17 ans
Quand j'ai eu mes 20 ans
C'était ma plus belle année
C'était ma plus belle année
Les filles rentraient au petit matin
Laissant leur parfum dans mon coeur brulant
Quand j'ai eu mes 20 ans
Quand j'ai eu 35 ans
C'était ma plus belle année
C'était ma plus belle année
Les filles pleuvaient, comme une pluie d'or
Et j'avais encore, gardé mes 20 ans
Quand j'ai eu 35 ans
Mais le temps se fait court
Et l'automne est venu
Quand je penses à la vie que j'ai connu
J'ai le coueur perdu, j'a le coeur noyé de mille beautés
Et c'est ma plus belle année
Et c'est ma plus belle année

It Was A Good Time
It Was A Good Time
Composer(s): Mike Curb; Mack David; Maurice Jarre
Performer(s): Liza Minnelli; Mike Curb
I now pronounce you for the rest of your life
I now pronounce you man and wife
It was a good time, it was the best time
It was a party, just to be near you
It was a good time, it was the best time
And we believed that it would last forever
We would stay together and share the laughter
With never ever a morning after
It was a good time, it was the best time
It seemed a short time, but such a good time
Since you're gone and won't be mine again
There are many stars that will not shine again
Except some time deep in my reverie
You return and then I remember when
It was a good time, it was the best time
It was a party, just to be near you
It was a good time, it was the best time
And we believed that it would last forever
Here we go 'round the mulberry bush
The mulberry bush, the mulberry bush
Here we go 'round the mulberry bush, early in the morning
Mama wakes up and she's alone
She's alone, she's alone
Mama wakes up and she's alone, early in the morning
... Falling down ... Lon ... My fair lady
Yes she looks a lot like him, yes she does, but, yes
My fair lady
Baby, baby Bunting, daddy's gone a-hunting
Daddy's gone!
... Dor-mei-vous, dor-mei-vous
Mama will stay near you, mama will be near you
Not your dad, that's too bad!
Good - bye - good - and I believed - ah-hah
Since you've gone and won't be mine again
There are many stars that will not shine again
Except some times deep in my reverie
You return and then I remember when
It - was - a - good - time, it was the best time
It was a party, just to be near you
It was a good time, it was the best time
It seemed a short time, but such a good time
A good... time...

Composer(s): Tish Hinojosa
Performer(s): Tish Hinojosa; Marlon
Arbolito, tengo siete anos, tengo pecas, yo te los regalo
Viene mamacita con luces y esferas para vestirte y ayudo
Pero, no me deja con los Icicles
La cocina de comadres manos, chocolate tamales y ajo
Donde esta mi madrina y Santo Clos, no son los regalos que quiero
Solo el paquete, para adivinar
Donde pasan los anos y suenos y abrazos viejo navidad
Amistades parientes y el Andy Williams con noche de paz
Arbolito que brillante estas!
Arbolito tengo quince anos, tu estrella ya mero alcanzo
Lo que yo deseo es secreto, te digo, se llama
Ay mama mira mi hermana no deja con los icicles
Arbolito, tengo trienta y algo, cuantas veces hemos platicado
No mijita, pon las esferas, verdad que parece Better Homes magazine,
No me importa, son mis icicles
