The year is coming to an end,
kitchen smells from cinnamon,
a time for family and friend,
a cosy and traditional one.

A time for peace in candle light,
for cookies and stories,
snow and decoration, what a sight,
abandoned the cold period worries,

Time to spend together,
time for each other,
religion, to me, does not so much matter,
everyone should be sister and brother.

It is a time of silence and preparation,
of songs and celebration,
of hand made window decoration,
of sitting together, of conversation.

With warm tea, special treats,
the start of a wonderful time,
where everyone meets,
to see the first candle shine.

Let us light it in peace,
to remind us not to hate,
everybodys heart at ease,
warmth and love to create.
