Carol of the Bells
Микола Дмитрович Леонтович Lyrics

Hark how the bells,
Listen to the sound of the bells

sweet silver bells,
The bells are pleasant and charming

all seem to say,
The bells appear to be conveying a message

throw cares away.
Let go of any worries or stress

Christmas is here,
The holiday season has arrived

bringing good cheer,
Bringing happiness and joy to others

to young and old,
To both the young and elderly

meek and the bold,
To the timid and the brave

Ding dong ding dong
The bells are ringing

that is their song
The sound of the bells is their melody

with joyful ring
The ring of the bells sounds cheerful

all caroling.
The sound of the bells creates a choir-like atmosphere

One seems to hear,
It feels as though one can hear

words of good cheer,
Positive and joyful words

from everywhere,
Coming from all directions

filling the air.
The atmosphere is filled with happiness

Oh how they pound,
The bells are ringing loudly and strongly

raising the sound,
Increasing the volume of the music

o'er hill and dale,
Across hills and valleys

telling their tale,
Expressing their story through their sound

Gaily they ring,
The bells ring in a lively and cheerful manner

while people sing,
As individuals sing along

songs of good cheer,
Happy and festive songs

Christmas is here.
The holiday season is upon us

Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
Wishing everyone a joyful and heartfelt holiday season

On on they send,
The sound of the bells continues on

on without end,
Continuing without conclusion

their joyful tone,
The sound of the bells brings happiness

to every home.
Reaching every household with their music

Ding dong ding dong... dong
The bells continue to ring joyfully
