When It Is Christmas When snow covers the ground And the lakes are frozen And the eye of the sun is extinguished When the swallow is far away from here And the forest is empty and silent There's a warm breath in the winter weather When it's Christmas, When it's Christmas Nobody remembers worries nor concerns Nor feels the biting frost Only a song echoes from children's mouths And the eyes glow because of joy Candels are shining from the christmas tree When it's Christmas, When it's Christmas
