Christmas Greetings

Lady dear, if Fairies may
     For a moment lay aside
Cunning tricks and elfish play,
     ’Tis at happy Christmas-tide.
 
We have heard the children say—
     Gentle children, whom we love—
Long ago, on Christmas Day,
     Came a message from above.
 
Still, as Christmas-tide comes round,
     They remember it again—
Echo still the joyful sound
     ‘Peace on earth, good-will to men!’
 
Yet the hearts must childlike be
     Where such heavenly guests abide:
Unto children, in their glee,
     All the year is Christmas-tide!
 
Thus, forgetting tricks and play
     For a moment, Lady dear,
We would wish you, if we may,
     Merry Christmas, glad New Year!
