English lyrics:
Unknown
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, with faithful leaves
unchanging.
[alt: "...how lovely are your
branches!"]
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, with faithful leaves unchanging,
Not only green in summer's
heat, but also winter's snow and sleet;
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, with faithful leaves unchanging,
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, of all the trees most lovely.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, of all the trees most lovely;
Each year you bring to me
delight, gleaming in the Christmas night.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree of all the trees most lovely.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, your leaves will teach me also,
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, your leaves will teach me also,
That hope and love and
faithfulness are precious things I can possess.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, your leaves will teach me also,
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, how lovely are your branches.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, how lovely are your branches.
In summer sun or winter snow,
a coat of green you always show.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas
tree, how lovely are your branches.
