Hyvää Joulua 2015

Recipe for Christmas All Year Long

Take a heap of child-like wonder

That opens up our eyes

To the unexpected gifts in life—

Each day a sweet surprise.

Mix in fond appreciation

For the people whom we know;

Like festive Christmas candles,

Each one has a special glow.

Add some giggles and some laughter,

A dash of Christmas food,

(Amazing how a piece of pie

Improves our attitude!)

Stir it all with human kindness;

Wrap it up in love and peace,

Decorate with optimism, and

Our joy will never cease.

If we use this healthy recipe,

We know we will remember

To be in the Christmas spirit,

Even when it's not December.

Lumi valkea peittää maan, 
taas yksin istua saan. 
Ikkunasta seuraan, on vilskettä, melskettä. 
Lasten laulua, autojen pauhua. 
Aikuiset kiireitään hoitaa, 
toisilleen hyvää joulua toivottaa. 
Voi kun tuo joulun taika vielä mut vallata vois. 
Silloin se entinen aika samanlaista ois. 
Mutta muista sä istuja yksinäinen, 
on joulun taika sydämessä ihmisen. 
Niinkuin lauletaan laulussa tutussa: 
"eikä silloin matka sinne kovin kauan kestä, joulumaa jos jokaiselta löytyy sydämestä."

Under the tree the gifts enthrall,
But the nicest present of them all
Is filling our thoughts with those who care,
Wanting our Christmas joy to share.

To you, whom we're often thinking of,
We send our holiday joy and love.

This Christmas,
may you have the fulfillment
of seeing around you
the people you love the most.
May you have the satisfaction
of creating special memories
they will remember with pleasure forever.
This Christmas,
may you feel peaceful and contented,
knowing what Christmas means,
and celebrating it your way.
