AT CHRISTMAS TIME

At Christmas time, we deck the hall 
With holly branches brave and tall,
With sturdy pine and hemlock bright -
And in the Yule log's dancing light
We tell old tales of field and fight
At Christmas time.

At Christmas time we pile the board
With flesh and fruit and vintage stored,
And mid the laughter and the glow
We tread a measure soft and slow,
And kiss beneath the mistletoe
At Christmas time.

LA VREMEA DE CRACIUN

La vremea de Craciun caminu-mpodobim aparte
Cu ramuri de ilice mandre, inalte,
Cu brazi semeti si cu a cucutei verzi sclipire -
Si-n a craciunului butuc arzanda stralucire
Ne spunem vechi povesti de arme si marire
La vremea de Craciun.

La vremea de Craciun ingramadim cu sarg camari
Cu carne, fructe, bauturi, gustari,
Si-n toiul rasului si-a veseliei
Batem masura lina a melodiei,
Si sarutari ne dam sub vascul armoniei
La vremea de Craciun.

CHRISTMAS COMES

Christmas comes , he comes , he comes ,
Ushered in with a rain of plums ,
Hollies in the window greet him ,
Schools some driving post to meet him,
Gifts precede him bells proclaim him.

Mos Craciun vine degraba, minune
Intampinat de o ploaie de prune,
Ilice la ferestre ii spun bun venit ,
Copiii  sa-l vada, ravase-i trimit,
Cadouri-l vestesc, clopotei de argint.

POEZIE ENGLEZEASCA TRADITIONALA

Bounce buckram, velvets dear,
Christmas comes but once a year,
When it comes it brings good cheer,
And when it's gone it's never near.

Salta cerbule, sari caprioara catifelata
Craciunul odata in an se arata,
Cand soseste veselia nu ne mai incape,
Cand pleaca mereu nu este prea aproape.

OUR JOYFUL'ST FEAST

Lo, now is come our joyful'st feast !
Let every man be jolly,
Each room with ivy leaves is dressed,
And every post with holly.
Now all our neighbor's chimneys smoke,
And Christmas blocks are burning ,
Their ovens they with baked meats choke
And all their spits are turning.
Without the door let sorrow lie,
And if , for cold , it hap to die,
We'll burry it in a Christmas pie,
And evermore be merry.

CEA MAI VESELA SARBATOARE A NOASTRA

Iata, cea mai vesela sarbatoare a noastra soseste,
Fie ca orice om sa se inveseleasca,
Fiecare camera ornata sa fie in a iederei cleste,
Si fiece stalp ilicele sa-l impodobeasca.
Se-nalta fumul din cosuri de case vecine,
Butucii de Craciun sub flacara se-aplec,
Cuptoarele se-neaca cu carne si grasime,
Si toata lumea inghite in sec.
Tristetea s-o lasam la usa afara,
Si dac-o fi de frig si ger sa moara,
O-m ingropa-o in placinta de diseara,
Ca fericiti sa fim in pururi, iar si iara.

Poezii românești despre iarnă
Tradiții de Crăciun în Anglia

SANTA CLAUS

He comes in the night! He comes inthe night!
He softly, silently comes,
While the little brown heads on the pillows so white
Are dreaming of bugles and drums.
He cuts thro' the snow like a ship thro' the foam,
While the white flakes round him whirl,
Who tells him I know not, but he findeth the home
Of each good little boy and girl.

His sleigh it is long, and deep, and wide,
It will caryy a host of things
While dozens of drums hang over the side,
With the sticks sticking under strings.
And yet not the sound of a drum is heard
Not a bugle blast be blown,
As he mounts to the chimney-top like a bird,
And drops to the hearth like stone.

The little red stockings he silently fills,
Till the stockings will hold no more,
The bright little sleds for the great snow hills
Are quickly set down on the floor.
Then Santa Claus mounts to the roof like a bird,
And glides to his seat in the sleigh,
Not the sound of a bugle is heard,
As he noiselessly gallops away.

MOS CRACIUN

El vine noaptea ! In noapte drumul isi asterne!
Soseste pe furis si fara vorbe,
Pe cand capsoare brune de pe albe perne
Viseaza trambite si tobe.
Prin nea isi face drum, ca vasele in mare,
In timp ce fulgii se-nvolbura, suvite,
El casa le-o gaseste- cine-i spune oare ?
A celor mai cuminti baieti, fetite.

Sania ii e prelunga si-ncapatoare foarte,
In ea cadouri multe se aduna,
Pe laturi zeci de tobe stau deoparte
Cu betele-adunate impreuna.
Si totusi nu se-aude vreun bubuit de toba
Si nici o trambita nu da rasunet,
Cand ca o pasare ajunge pe horn cu a lui tolba
Si se coboara in camin fara un sunet.

Micutii rosii ciorapei in liniste-i indeas ,
Prea plini, ca nici o boaba-n ei nu mai incape,
Patinele de strabatut zapada -alunecoasa
Sunt asezate pe podea, de brad aproape.
Apoi pluteste mosul , ca un graur, sus pe casa,
Pe-al saniei scaun in fuga se strecoara,
De trambita sau toba zvon nu-i pasa
Pe cand se -ndeparteaza-n noaptea clara.

CHRISTMAS - TIDE COMES LIKE A BRIDE

When Christmas-tide comes in like a bride,
With holly and ivy cla ,
Twelve days in the year, much mirth and good cheer
In every household is had.

CRACIUNUL SOSESTE CA O MIREASA

Cand Craciunul soseste precum o mireasa,
Impodobit cu iedera si cu ilice,
Douaspe zile-n an in fiecare casa
De veselie-s pline si ferice.

CHRISTMAS

Christmas is comin , the geese are
getting fat,
Please to put a penny in an Old
man's hat;
If you haven't got a penn , a
ha'penny will d ,
If you haven't got a ha' penn ,
God bless you.

CRACIUN

Craciunul soseste, gasca s-a ingrasat,
s-a facut durdulie,
Pune, te rog, zece bani
in a batranului palarie;
Daca zece banuti n-ai sa-i dai
da-i cinci neaparat.
Daca nici cinci banuti nu mai ai,
de Domnul sa fii binecuvantat.
