It just isn’t Christmas without a little German. I studied German a wee bit when I was in high school, and I spent several weeks traveling there as a teenager. I hold a special place in my heart for the people, language, customs, and food. Gingerbread house anyone?
I needed a little work break, and nothing does the trick like O Tannenbaum. Be sure to check out Nat King Cole’s version. The best!
German Lyrics:
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
wie treu sind deine Blätter!
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
wie treu sind deine Blätter!
Du grünst nicht nur zur Sommerzeit,
Nein auch im Winter, wenn es schneit.
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter!
