http://www.amazon.com/Childs-Christmas-Susie-Tallman/dp/B001E1B
大节日要到了，来欣赏一下我家娃们最喜欢的歌曲吧（这盘CD里头都有的,可惜youtube
没有Susie Tallman的版本），
Christmas Carol可不止Jingel Bells哦。
觉得最难唱的是Frosty the Snowman因为太快啦，还有Mr. Grinch词儿太多啦，上个月
刚刚练了Jolly Old St. Nicolas勉强跟上。至于其他歌，难度都不是很大，挺容易跟
唱的。
1. 红鼻子小鹿鲁道夫
这个就是个屌丝奋斗史啊，可怜的鲁道夫从小受到大家嘲笑，被排斥在众人之外。
可是突然在大雾的圣诞爷，圣诞老人选中了他作为鹿队的领导，然后其他鹿们也众星捧
月，鲁道夫从此载入史册啦！我从小就听过这个调子，感觉挺活泼幽默的。直到有了娃
以后去了一次Christmas Carol的活动才知道原来是这么有名的鲁道夫故事呢。
那天老二还问了个非常高深的问题-为什么历史是his-story而不是her-story呢。儿童
叙事史诗就首推鲁道夫了。
Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose.
And if you ever saw him,
you would even say it glows.
All of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Rudolph
join in any reindeer games.
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright,
won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then all the reindeer loved him
as they shouted out with glee,
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
you'll go down in history! (最后的尾音发成his--to-ri)
2.魔法雪人霜霜。一个烟斗，一顶魔法丝帽子，和一颗永远快乐的心。霜霜非常活泼地
蹦蹦跳跳，还带领了一群人追逐他，还想戏弄一下交通警察呢。虽然最后太阳好热，春
天要来了，霜霜要融化了，但是他对小朋友们说，不要哭，我说不定什么时候会回来的。
这首歌充满了活泼和欢快，也让小朋友们知道，世界上没有什么东西是永存的，要珍惜
当下现在的快乐；也要像霜霜一样抱有乐观的心境，永远都不要气馁。
Frosty the Snowman, was a jolly happy soul,
With a corn cob pipe and a button nose, and two eyes made of coal.
Frosty the Snowman, is a fairytale, they say.
He was made of snow, but the children know he came to life one day.
There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found,
For when they placed it on his head, he began to dance around!
Oh, Frosty, the Snowman, was alive as he could be;
and the children say he could laugh and play,
just the same as you and me.
Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump,
look at Frosty go.
Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump,
over the hills of snow.
Frosty the Snowman, knew the sun was hot that day,
so he said, "Let's run, and we'll have some fun now, before I melt away."
Down to the village, with a broomstick in his hand,
Running here and there, all around the square,
sayin', "Catch me if you can."
He led them down the streets of town, right to the traffic cop;
and only paused a moment, when he heard him holler, "Stop!"
For Frosty, the Snowman, had to hurry on his way,
But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't cry, I'll be back again some day."
3.这是苏斯博士的故事，说的是格林奇装扮成圣诞老人偷了小朋友们的圣诞礼物，这对
娃们来说可是滔天大罪呢。所以这种歌，是我看到的儿童歌曲里面屈指可数的骂人骂得
最最邪恶最最有趣的了。骂人都能骂成这水平，文学修养该有多高啊。
小娃们一听到stink stank stunk就异口同声地唱哦，练习过去式也很不错呢。
You are the Mean One Mr. Grinch
You’re a mean one Mr. Grinch
You really are a heel.
You're as cuddly as a cactus,
And as charming as an eel,
Mr. Grinch!
You're a bad banana,
With a greasy black peel!
You're a monster, Mr. Grinch!
Your heart's an empty hole.
Your brain is full of spiders.
You've got garlic in your soul,
Mr. Grinch!
I wouldn't touch you
With a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!
You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch!
You have termites in your smile.
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile,
Mr. Grinch!
Given the choice between the two of you,
I'd take the seasick crocodile!
You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch!
You're a nasty, wasty skunk!
Your heart is full of unwashed socks.
Your soul is full of gunk,
Mr. Grinch!
The three words that best describe you
Are as follows, and I quote,
"Stink, stank, stunk!"
4.圣诞老人要进城啦
这首歌就像是个唐娃的歌，表现好不好啊，有没有naughty啊，否则就没有礼物啊。哦
，娃们就是听了这首歌才知道要给圣诞老人写信的哦--每年都写我非常非常乖，我要好
多好多礼物，然后小镇的谁谁谁就真的会寄来一封像是北极来的Santa邮件呢，每次都
关照我们准备好cookies and carrots给圣诞老人和小鹿。老娘每年都要半夜爬起来藏
饼干和萝卜，因为娃会数数啦，知道少了就是圣诞老人吃掉了哦。
"Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town"
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
He's making a list,
Checking it twice;
Gonna find out who's naughty or nice.
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Goodness sake
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming to town
5. Jolly Old St. Nicholas
通过这首歌，娃们终于知道了圣诞老人原来叫尼古拉斯老爷爷。
而且这首歌要叫娃好好睡觉哦，然后圣诞老人就会在午夜12点，从烟囱偷偷地爬进来送
礼物呢。
午夜12点真是神奇，有灰姑娘，也有圣诞老人。关键是，尼古拉斯就是知心老大爷，有
什么悄悄话都可以偷偷对他说哦，他可是最值得信赖的人儿呢。
Jolly old St. Nicholas, Lean your ear this way!
Don't you tell a single soul, What I'm going to say;
Christmas Eve is coming soon; Now, you dear old man,
Whisper what you'll bring to me: Tell me if you can.
When the clock is striking twelve, When I'm fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad and black, With your pack you'll creep;
All the stockings you will find Hanging in a row;
Mine will be the shortest one, You'll be sure to know.
Johnny wants a pair of skates, Susie wants a sled
Nelly wants a picture book; one she hasn't read
As for me, my dear old man on this special night
Choose for me, dear Santa Claus,do you know the best.
6.我个人最爱的Love came down at Christmas
圣诞节就是一个充满爱和奉献的节日，每当听到这首歌，peaceful mind, beautiful
world！
终于找到了Susie版的了，hohoho!
Love came down at Christmas
Love all lovely, love divine
Love was born at Christmas
Star and angels gave the sign.
Worship we the Godhead
Love incarnate, love divine
Worship we our Jesus
But wherewith for sacred sign?
Love shall be our token
Love shall be yours and love be mine
Love to God and to all men
Love for plea and gift and sign...
7. 这首歌太朗朗上口啦，圣诞过后就直接唱新年快乐，够欢快够热闹！
而且我们家的荷兰猪正好叫figgy,把它做成Figgy布丁那可太搞笑啦！
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin;
Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding;
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding;
Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer
We won't go until we get some;
We won't go until we get some;
We won't go until we get some, so bring some out here
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
8.圣诞树
适合全家围着火炉欢唱哦。赞美常青树坚毅不拔的品格，非常正能量呢。
这首歌版本众多，世界上有各种语言的，Susie Tallman那个小男生唱的是最简单的一
段。
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
Forever true your color
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
Forever true your color
Your boughs so green in summertime
Stay bravely green in wintertime
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
Forever true your color
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
You fill my heart with music
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
You fill my heart with music
Reminding me on Christmas day
To think of you and then be gay
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree
You fill my heart with music
9.Hanukkah节日的Dreidel小陀螺歌
充分表现了小娃自制了个玩具后的自豪感，非常欢乐，非常自豪！
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7H1QhFF7xE
I have a little dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play!
chorus:
Oh - dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play!
It has a lovely body
With legs so short and thin
And when my dreidel’s tired
It drops and then I win!
chorus
My dreidel’s always playful
It loves to dance and spin
A happy game of dreidel
Come play now, let’s begin! |
