Noël! Noël! Noël! Noël! A Catholic tale have I to tell! And a Christian song have I to sing While all the bells in Arundel ring. I pray good beef and I pray good beer This holy night of all the year, But I pay detestable drink for them That give no honor to Bethlehem. May all good fellows that here agree Drink Audit Ale in heaven with me And may all my enemies go to hell! Noël! Noël! Noël! Noël! May all my enemies go to hell! Noël! Noël!
