Lyrics
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Wishing for a joyful Christmas
Let your heart be light
Encouragement to feel happy
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Hope that problems will disappear
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Reiteration of the wish for a joyful Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
Inviting to celebrate the festive season joyously
From now on, our troubles will be miles away
Belief that troubles will be far away
Here we are as in olden days
Reflecting on past times
Happy golden days of yore
Nostalgia for happy moments in the past
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Appreciation for close and loyal friends
Gather near to us once more
Desire for friends to gather close again
Through the years we all will be together
Expressing the hope of being together in the future
If the fates allow
Contingent on destiny
So hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Symbolizing hope by putting a star up high
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Re-emphasizing the wish for a joyful Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Repetition of the wish for a joyful Christmas
Let your heart be light
Encouragement to feel happy again
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Hope that troubles will vanish
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Reiteration of the wish for a joyful Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
Invitation to celebrate the festive season joyously again
From now on, our troubles will be miles away
Belief that troubles will be distant
Here we are as in olden days
Reflecting on past times once more
Happy golden days of yore
Nostalgia for happy moments in the past reiterated
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Appreciation for close and loyal friends reiterated
Gather near to us once more
Desire for friends to gather close again reiterated
Through the years we all will be together
Expressing the hope of being together in the future reiterated
If the fates allow
Contingent on destiny reiterated
So hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Symbolizing hope by putting a star up high reiterated
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Re-emphasizing the wish for a joyful Christmas
