Yuletide Felicitations
I am at home after a busy, but, lovely day at work.
I mustn't be in bed too late this Christmas Eve because I have an early start tomorrow.
Back at work & I meant to prep my veg etc .. this evening, but, well .. it won't take long on Christmas Day.
Last time I checked, Father Christmas was headed to Kuwait with his sleigh. Rudolph leading the herd. Obviously.
And around the world people are marking this evening in so many different ways.
Food will be playing its part
It might be duck in Denmark
It might be goose in Germany
It might be foie gras in France
It might be suckling pig in Spain
Music will also be heard & played
This makes me dewey-eyed every time I hear it.
Still, still, still, He sleeps this night so chill.
The Virgin's tender arms enfolding,
Warm and safe the Child are holding.
Still, still, still, He sleeps this night so chill.
Sleep, sleep, sleep, He lies in slumber deep.
While angel hosts from heav'n come winging,
Sweetest songs of joy are singing.
Sleep, sleep, sleep, He lies in slumber deep
This is Bryn Terfel
