Merry Christmas, everyone! Here's our Christmas poem, this year to the tune of 'Feliz Navidad' because it was the first time that we understood the upbeat-ness of this song as we gazed out at beaches and sweated in flipflops - for once it was the slow solemn Christmas songs that sounded out of place with our surroundings! Italics is for the 'feliz navidad' melody; regular font is for the 'I wanna wish you a merry christmas' melody.
Feliz Navidad
Zul Saryn Bolon [Mongolian]
Kung His Hsin Nien Bing [Mandarin]
Suksan Wan Christmas Lae Sawadee Pee Mai [Thai]
Before we left our home in Korea
Em wrote her thesis on Buddhist ideas
Geoff did bird counting and was head teacher
Both run ragged and mostly apart
Shubh Naya Baras [Hindi]
Selamat Hari Natal [Malay]
Krist Yesu Ko Shuva Janma Utsav Ko Upalaxhma Hardik Shuva [Nepali]
Since the summer we're traveling Asia
Mongolia first then with Styles in China
Tibet, Nepal, six weeks all through India
Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand.
We want to wish you a Merry Christmas
We're thinking how good it will be to see ya
Although we're far soon we will be nearer
We send our love wherever we are.
