Hello My Friend, Hello

Hello my friend, hello Hello my friend, hello So nice to see you out tonight Hello my friend, hello The table set for twelve The ringing of the bells The night outside is bright with snow But it's warm outside, with the fire blow May all release their heavy load Hello my friend, hello The garland decks the hall The season fills us all And though the year has come and passed The dark winter's gone at last The earth atones for all we lack Hello my friend, hello Tonight the stars align We all partake the wine With merry hearts and innocence All of children and all of friends The beggars sing with recompense Hello my friend, hello Hello my friend, hello Hello my friend, hello So nice to see you out tonight Hello my friend, hello
