Happy Xmas
Die Roten Rosen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
A new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
The rich and the poor ones
The road is so long

And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For the yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fights

A very merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Lets hope it's a good one
Without any fear

So this is Christmas - war is over, if you want it
And what have you done
Another year over - war is over, if you want it
A new one just begun
And so happy Christmas - war is over, if you want it
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones - war is over, if you want it
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear





War is over - if you want it
War is over now
