[English]

Oh, white Christmas

I dream

And with the snow all around

White is my chimera and it is a messenger

Of peace and pure love, oh, oh, oh

Oh, white Christmas (it's coming, it's coming, it's coming)

Snow (with white snow)

A hope and a song

You will remember your childhood

When white Christmas arrives

...

Oh, white Christmas (it's coming, it's coming, it's coming)

I dream (it will come)

That everything is white all around

White Christmas Eve (comes, comes, comes, comes)

And messenger (comes, comes, comes, comes)

Of peace and pure love (white Christmas)

Oh, white Christmas (it's coming, it's coming, it's coming)

Snow (it will come)

A white dream and a song

Nostalgia returns home

...

When white Christmas arrives

...

[Spanish]

Oh, blanca Navidad

Sueño

Y con la nieve alrededor

Blanca es mi quimera y es mensajera

De paz y de puro amor, oh, oh, oh

Oh, blanca Navidad (ya llega, ya llega, ya llega)

Nieve (con una blanca nieve)

Una esperanza y un cantar

Recordar tu infancia podrás

Al llegar la blanca navidad

Oh, blanca Navidad (ya llega, ya llega, ya llega)

Sueño (ya llegará)

Que todo es blanco alrededor

Blanca noche buena (llega, llega, llega, llega)

Y mensajera (llega, llega, llega, llega)

De paz y de puro amor (blanca Navidad)

Oh, blanca Navidad (ya llega, ya llega, ya llega)

Nieve (ya llegará)

Un blanco sueño y un cantar

La nostalgia vuelve al hogar

Al llegar la blanca Navidad
