Over deze songtekst:

Wassail is Oud-Engels en betekent letterlijk 'wees gezond'.

Wassail is een drankje: appel-cider. Het werd vroeger op speciale gelegenheden in Engeland gedronken. Men hoopte daarmee op een goede oogst het volgend jaar.

Algemeen betekent het drinken en dansen en vrolijk zijn.

Dit lied is een oud kerstlied.

Here we come a-Wassailing
Among the leaves so green
Here we come a wandering
So fairly to be seen
Here we come a wandering
So fairly to be seen

Love and joy come to you
And to you a Wassail too
God bless you and send you
A Happy New Year
God send you a Happy New Year

We are not daily beggars
That beg from door to door
But we're the neighbours' children
That you have seen before
We're the neighbours' children
That you have seen before

Love and joy come to you
And to you a Wassail too
God bless you and send you
A Happy New Year
God send you a Happy New Year

I have a little purse
It's made of leather skin
I need a silver sixpence
To line it well within
I need a silver sixpence
To line it well within

Love and joy come to you
And to you a Wassail too
God bless you and send you
A Happy New Year
God send you a Happy New Year

God bless the master of the house
And then the mistress too
And all the little children
That round the table grew
All the little children
That round this table grew

Love and joy come to you
And to you a Wassail too
God bless you and send you
A Happy New Year
God send you a Happy New Year

Here we come a-Wassailing
Among the leaves so green
And here we come a wandering
So fairly to be seen
Here we come a wandering
So fairly to be seen

Love and joy come to you
And to you a Wassail too
God bless you and send you
A Happy New Year
God send you a Happy New Year

God bless you and send you
A Happy New Year
God send you a Happy New Year
