记得第一年在英国过圣诞时，圣诞前夜我们全家去了住地附近的社区活动中心。
推门进去，里面的人们正在群情激昂地一首接一首地唱圣诞歌曲，其中就有这首“圣诞十二日”。
那是我第一次听到这首歌，很新鲜也被朗朗上口的旋律深深地吸引。
同一个曲调重复了十二遍，像绕口令一样，每一遍会加入一个新的元素，越听越有意思。强烈建议你打开听听看看。
第二年我买了一本厚厚的圣诞歌曲集，我家小E小朋友一进入圣诞月，就常常翻书唱歌。
想想那个场景，早饭前小朋友或坐或站或躺，面前一本翻开的书，一个人兴致勃勃地一首接一首地唱，真是迎接节日最好的实际行动。“圣诞十二日"也是她的最爱之一。
马上就是圣诞了，送给你这首歌，祝你圣诞愉快！
