CHRISTMAS PROGRAM - JINGLE BELLS

Hey guys, our Christmas program is only 10 days away! Yikes! I really hope that you guys are practicing your class song in school and at home! In addition, you will have one other song to memorize, "Jingle Bells". I will post a music video and lyrics below for you to sing along with.

JINGLE BELLS

Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Ha! Ha! Ha!
Bells on bobtails ring
Making spirits bright
Oh what fun it is to ride 
and sing a sleighing song tonight

Jingle bells
Jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Jingle Bells
Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh

MILLE CHERUBINI IN CORO

Dormi, dormi,

sogna, piccolo amor mio.

Dormi, sogna,

posa il capo sul mio cor.

Mille cherubini in coro

ti sorridono dal ciel.

Una dolce canzone

t’accarezza il crin

Una man ti guida lieve

fra le nuvole d’or,

sognando e vegliando

su te, mio tesor,

proteggendo il tuo cammin.

Su te, mio tesor,

proteggendo il tuo cammin.

Dormi, dormi,

sogna, piccolo amor mio.

Dormi, sogna,

posa il capo sul mio cor.

Chiudi gli occhi,

ascolta gli angioletti,

dormi, dormi,

sogna, piccolo amor.

Dormi, dormi,

sogna, piccolo amor mio.

Dormi, sogna,

posa il capo sul mio cor.

Chiudi gli occhi,

ascolta gli angioletti,

dormi, dormi,

sogna, piccolo amor.

Sogna, piccolo amor.
