Chiefly British

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
Our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
Our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be together
If the Lord allows
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

@matigo Yes but the native language of the Ryukyus was Japonic, not Chinese. 'Log' sounds awful. Makes me think of slavery elsewhere.

@matigo Yeah, but the people are Japonic aren’t they? Or at least their language is.

@matigo I never knew that. Sounds like America tried it on…in the hope Japan would forget they used to have Okinawa.
