Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on, our troubles will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
So hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on, our troubles will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
So hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Swingerhead's version of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" is a jazzy, upbeat take on the classic song originally popularized by Judy Garland. The lyrics themselves are a message of hope and joy in the midst of difficult times. The song begins by encouraging the listener to have a joyful heart and let go of their worries, as they look forward to a happy holiday season.
The chorus emphasizes the idea that the holiday season is a time to forget about one's troubles and be happy, "From now on, our troubles will be miles away." The second verse takes the listener back to olden days, imagining happy memories with friends and family gathered together. The verse ends with the hopeful message that these happy moments can continue into the future: "Through the years we all will be together, if the fates allow."
The song then concludes with a call to action, to hang a shining star as a symbol of hope and joy, and to enjoy the holiday season to its fullest. The message of the song is clear: no matter what troubles you may face, the holiday season is a time to come together with loved ones, make new memories, and find joy and hope in the midst of difficult circumstances.
