115. Ring, bells, ring ding, dong ding

1 Ring, bells, ring ding, dong ding;
Ring ding, dong ding!
Winter winds are blowing
Cold the night and snowing;
Children, come and greet me;
Open, I entreat ye!
Ring, bells, ring ding, dong, ding;
Ring ding dong, ding!

2 Ring, bells, ring ding, dong ding;
Ring ding, dong ding!
Joyful carols sing ye,
See the gifts I bring ye,
For each boy and maiden
Richly I am laden.
Ring, bells, ring ding, dong ding;
Ring ding dong, ding!

3 Ring, bells, ring ding, dong ding;
Ring ding, dong ding!
See the candles glowing;
Hearts their love are showing!
List to what I'm telling,
There I'll make my dwelling.
Ring, bells, ring ding, dong ding;
Ring ding dong, ding!
