Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
Embrace Joy: Unwrapping the Heartfelt Message of 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas'
Lyrics
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Wish for a joyful Christmas
Let your heart be light
Encouragement to lighten one's heart
From now on our troubles will be out of sight
Expectation that troubles will fade away
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Repeat of the wish for a merry Christmas
Make the Yule-tide gay
Encouragement to make the Christmas season cheerful
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 the present moment reminiscent of the past
Happy golden days of yore
Recalling happy and golden days of the past
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Expressing gratitude for faithful and dear friends
Gather near to us once more
Desire for friends to gather close once more
Through the years we all will be together
Looking ahead to a future where everyone is together
If the fates allow
Contingent hope that fate allows reunions
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Symbolic gesture of hanging a star on a bough for celebration
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Reiterating the wish for a merry Christmas
Here we are as in olden days
Repetition of reflection on the past, emphasizing joy
Happy golden days of yore
Recalling happy and golden days of the past (repeated)
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Expressing gratitude for faithful and dear friends (repeated)
Gather near to us once more
Desire for friends to gather close once more (repeated)
Through the years we all will be together
Reiterating the hope for a future where everyone is together
If the fates allow
Contingent hope that fate allows reunions (repeated)
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Symbolic gesture of hanging a star on a bough for celebration (repeated)
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Final wish for a merry Christmas in the present
Have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Reiteration of the final wish for a merry Christmas
