#9 of the 12 Days of Christmas

"The Twelve Days of Christmas" is an English Christmas carol. A classic example of a cumulative song, the lyrics detail a series of increasingly numerous gifts given on each of the twelve days of Christmas (the twelve days that make up the Christmas season, starting with Christmas Day).[1][2] The carol, whose words were first published in England in the late eighteenth century, has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 68. A large number of different melodies have been associated with the song, of which the best known is derived from a 1909 arrangement of a traditional folk melody by English composer Frederic Austin.

A fun children's Christmas sing-a-long. So many gifts and a lot of renditions of this song have come and gone. Just a cheerful song, and hopefully you don't get the verses mixed up! Drummers, pipers, lords, ladies, maids, swans, geese, rings, calling birds, french hens, turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree!
