Lend me your wings so fleet,
little bird
To carry a sweet and tender word,
A loving wish for Christmas-day
Straight from my heart
to many far away.

A happy Christmas to you.

Whatever hopes within your breast abide,
For joys most dear and new,
May glad fulfilment come with Christmastide,
And all your hopes come true.

-A.L. Salmon
