[Verse 1]
So this is Christmas
And what have you done?
Another year over
And a new one just begun
So this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

[Chorus]
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

[Verse 2]
So this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight

[Chorus]
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

[Verse 3]
So this is Christmas
And what have we done?
Another year over
And a new one just begun
So this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

[Chorus]
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

[Outro]
War is over
If you want it
War is over
Now
War is over
If you want it
War is over
Now
War is over
If you want it
War is over
Now
War is over
If you want it
War is over
Now
