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!

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

Peace and plenty for many a Christmas to come.

Christmas is here,
Merry Old Christmas,
Gift-bearing, heart-touching, joy-brining Christmas,
Day of grand memorie, king of the year.
A Christmas wish -
May you never forget
what is worth remembering
or remember
what is best forgotten.
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 holly and ivy hanging up,
And to something wet in every cup.
At Christmas play and make good cheer
For Christmas comes but once a year.

A Merry Christmas this December
To a lot of folks I don't remember.
Now, thrice welcome, Christmas!
Which brings us good cheer,
Mince pies and plum pudding-
Strong ale and strong beer!
Here's wishing you more happiness
Than all my words can tell,
Not just alone for Christmas
But for all the year as well.
I know I've wished you this before
But every year I wish it more,
A Merry Christmas.
Then here's to the heartening wassail,
Wherever good fellows are found;
Be its master instead of its vassal,
And order the glasses around.
