A Partridge In A Pear Tree - Drawing By Mary Shillabeer (1934)





The Twelve Days Of Christmas

On The first day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
A partridge in a pear tree.

On the second day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Two turtle-doves and a partridge in a pear tree.

On the third day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the fourth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the fifth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the sixth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the seventh day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the eighth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the ninth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Nine drummers drumming,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the tenth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Ten pipers piping,
Nine drummers drumming,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the eleventh day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Eleven dames a-dancing,
Ten pipers piping,
Nine drummers drumming,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the twelfth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me--
Twelve lords a-leaping,
Eleven dames a-dancing,
Ten pipers piping,
Nine drummers drumming,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens, two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
