0: 00 / 0: 00
hear the sledges with the bells,
silver bells!
what a world of merriment their melody foretells!
how they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
in the icy air of night!
while the stars, that oversprinkle
all the heavens, seem to twinkle
with a crystalline delight;
keeping time, time, time,
in a sort of runic rhyme,
to the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
from the bells, bells, bells, bells,
bells, bells, bells-
from the jingling and the tinkling of the bells.
