Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song, as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say, "Are you married?"
We'll say, "No man"
But you can do the job, when you're in town

Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song, as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mister Snowman
Yes, until the all the kids knock him down

And later on,we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we've made

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of “Winter Wonderland” by Frank Sinatra|Bing Crosby is a classic holiday song that highlights the joy and beauty of winter. The first verse sets the scene of a snow-covered lane with the sound of sleigh bells ringing in the background. It’s a beautiful sight that fills the singer with happiness, and he takes pleasure in walking in this winter wonderland. The second verse introduces a new bird that has replaced the bluebird, and its sweet love song sets the perfect backdrop for a leisurely walk in the snow.


The third verse is an invitation to build a snowman in the meadow and pretend that he’s Parson Brown, who’ll pretend to marry and ask the question of whether the couple is married yet. The snowman, of course, can’t take the couple’s vows or make them married, but all in good spirits, the couple can play along. The fourth verse is about sitting by the fire as one looks forward to the future and reflects on the plans made together. The joyous nature of the song captures the holiday spirit, with the lyrics painting vivid images of snowy landscapes, warm fires, and fun-loving people sharing good times with one another.

As we dream sittin' by the fire
To face unafraid all the plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
