"Of all the trees that are in the wood"
"It is the holly that most closely bears the crown"
Traditional English carol...

The Holly And The Ivy
The holly and the ivy
When they are both full grown
Of all trees that are in the wood
The holly bears the crown


It is a WONDERFUL carol.

Merry Christmas!

Right after ‘Christmas With The Chipmunks’ ‘The Holly and the Ivy’ is my favorite Christmas Carol. ;)
