Merry Christmas, my dear friends!
At this holy feast let's hold out hands!

Let’s think and dream of the best!
You are all my dearest and blessed.

Without you I can’t imagine my life,
And with you I can stand any strife.

Long awaited Christmas has come!
For me and you it’s a true momentum.

The holy star, my friends, has lightened,
The whole world for us has brightened.

The star’s the harbinger of happy days,
The birth of Christ today we praise.

This day is crowned with the lightness,
And filled with the eternal blessedness.

It looks as it came out of the fairy tales,
Out of the tales with the Scarlet Sails.

In the souls let’s keep our Gods existence!
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
