En natt med sang

"Julaften var en natt med sang som foldet seg rundt deg som et varmt sjal, men den varmet mer enn kroppen din. Julaften varmet hjertet ditt - og fylte det med melodier som skulle vare for alltid."


(Bess Streeter Aldrich)

The Spirit of Christmas

I am thinking of you today because it is Christmas,
and I wish you happiness.
And tomorrow, because it will be the day after Christmas,
I shall still wish you happiness.
I may not be able to tell you about it every day, because I
may be far away or we may be very busy.
But that makes no difference, my thoughts and my wishes
will be with you just the same.
Whatever joy or success comes to you will make me glad
clear through the year.

I wish you the spirit of Christmas.


(Henry Van Dyke)
