There once was a tree, a beautiful treeThat grew in Fairy LandIn winter time, the wind would blowOver the land of ice and snowBringing the sound of the laughter of childrenBringing the sounds of joyTelling the tree of the wonder of ChristmasFor every girl and boyOh, how he wished they could come and seeJust what a beautiful tree was heOh, how he wished that he were a Christmas treeOne starry night, his branches so brightWere glistening in the snowAnd as he stood so silentlyWishing he were a Christmas treeSoftly, there came from the forest around himMagic and jingling bellsNearer and nearer, they seemed to surround himWeaving their magic spellsOh, how he quivered with fright becauseThere, right beside him, was Santa ClausAsking him if he'd be his Christmas treeNow, in his fancy dress, he's the bestOf all the Christmas treesPlaying with gifts and bon-bons tooGay fairy lights of every hueHe stands and waits for the children to see himDressed in his party bellsOh, what a thrill when they see all the tinselRound Mr. Robin's nestAnd as he raises his arms so greenSanta agrees with the Fairy QueenHe is a very beautiful Christmas treeHe is a very beautiful Christmas tree
