Bright december moon is beaming

't duurt nog even, maar ik vond een aardig liedje op het web...
Bright December moon is beaming,
boys and girls now stop your play.
For tonight's the wonderous evening,
eve of good St. Nicholas' day.
Over roofs his horse unshod
brings us cake or else the rod
Over roofs his horse unshod
brings us cake or else the rod
We will share things fair and even
marzipan and gingerbread
Oh, what fun it will be playing
with our games till time for bed.
Only naughty kids will shake
get the rod instead of cake
Only naughty kids will shake
get the rod instead of cake
No one here needs to be fearful
mother says we have been good
Though perhaps we've not been always
as obedient as we should.
So we wait in hopeful fear
holy saint be welcome here.
So we wait in hopeful fear
holy saint be welcome here.

En, per frondem lucet luna,
sat rumoris socii!
Dulcis Hora vespertina,
iam venit Nicolaii.
Corda spe pulsant magna,
cui libum, cui ferula
Corda spe pulsant magna,
cui libum, cui ferula
Gaudeamus nunc ludentes,
harlequino cum pulchro
Et honeste dividentes,
dulcia dulciculo
Heu, qualis molestia:
Non libum, sed ferula
Heu, qualis molestia:
Non libum, sed ferula
