Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" convey the traditional sentiment of warmth and joy that surround the holiday season. The first verse starts with the generic greeting of "We wish you a Merry Christmas" repeated three times, followed by "and a Happy New Year!" This greeting is meant to convey the best wishes for the upcoming year, but also refers to the festive nature of the winter holidays – Christmas and New Year's Eve.


In the subsequent verses, the song's theme of good tidings and enthusiasm for the season continue, with references to figgy pudding and a refusal to leave until some is given to the singers. Figgy pudding is a traditional English dessert made with dried fruits, spices, and sometimes rum or brandy; in the song, it is used as a metaphor for the rewards of the holiday season, which are eagerly anticipated by the singers.
