[English]

I'm hearing sleigh bells

I'm seeing snow

I've waited all year, baby

Just to see those reindeer, watch them as they go

Home by the fireside

Twinkling lights

I've waited all year, baby

Just to see that sleigh flying to the night

All the lights, all of the fun, all of us here, all of us one

Only a gift, only a toy, only for a good girl and boy

The greatest party you ever did see

I'm hearing sleigh bells (hear those sleigh bells ring)

I'm seeing snow (I see those snowy scenes)

I've waited all year, baby

Just to see those reindeer, watch them as they go

Home by the fireside (home by the fireside)

Twinkling lights (all of those pretty lights)

I've waited all year, baby

Just to see that sleigh flying to the night

All of the laughs, all of the dreams, all of the songs, all of us sing

Only a wish, only a star, only a leap from where you are

For those who believe on Christmas eve

I'm hearing sleigh bells (hear those sleigh bells ring)

I'm seeing snow (I see those snowy scenes)

I've waited all year, baby

Just to see those reindeer, watch them as they go

Home by the fireside (home by the fireside)

Twinkling lights (all of those pretty lights)

I've waited all year, baby

Just to see that sleigh flying to the night

A party for you, and for me

A party for a magical scene

Ain't no party like Christmas Eve

Oh, I'm hearing sleigh bells (hear those sleigh bells ring)

I'm seeing snow (I see those snowy scenes)

I've waited all year, baby

Just to see those reindeer, watch them as they go

Home by the fireside (home by the fireside)

Twinkling lights (all of those pretty lights)

I've waited all year, baby

Just to see that sleigh flying to the night

Grammaire:

  • I'm hearing sleigh bells

    ➔ Présent continu pour les actions en cours

    ➔ La structure "I'm hearing" (sujet + verbe 'être' + verbe en -ing) décrit une action qui se déroule au moment même où l'on parle. Dans ce cas, le locuteur entend activement les clochettes du traîneau.

  • Just to see those reindeer, watch them as they go

    ➔ Infinitif de but ("to see"), proposition subordonnée relative avec "as"

    "Just to see" indique le but d'attendre toute l'année. "Watch them as they go" utilise "as" pour décrire la manière dont les rennes se déplacent. Cela suggère de les regarder *pendant* qu'ils y vont.

  • I've waited all year, baby

    ➔ Passé composé (mettant l'accent sur une action passée ayant une pertinence pour le présent)

    "I've waited" implique que la période d'attente a commencé dans le passé et se poursuit jusqu'au présent, culminant au moment présent de la veille de Noël. L'émotion d'anticipation accumulée au cours de l'année est mise en évidence.

  • All of the laughs, all of the dreams, all of the songs, all of us sing

    ➔ Répétition pour l'emphase, proposition subordonnée relative implicite

    ➔ La répétition de "all of the" met en évidence l'abondance et l'importance de chaque élément (rires, rêves, chansons). "All of us sing" peut être interprété comme "All of the songs (that) all of us sing" avec un pronom relatif omis.

  • Only a leap from where you are

    ➔ Préposition de lieu "from", "where" en tant qu'adverbe relatif

    "From where you are" indique le point de départ pour le saut. "Where" introduit une proposition subordonnée relative décrivant l'emplacement.

  • For those who believe on Christmas eve

    ➔ Proposition subordonnée relative avec "who", préposition de temps "on"

    "Who believe" introduit une proposition subordonnée relative décrivant les personnes. "On Christmas Eve" précise le moment où la croyance est pertinente.

  • Ain't no party like Christmas Eve

    ➔ Double négation (non standard mais courant dans le langage informel), comparatif

    "Ain't no party" est une double négation, signifiant "there isn't any party". Il est utilisé de manière informelle pour mettre l'accent. La phrase dans son ensemble est un comparatif, impliquant que les fêtes de la veille de Noël sont meilleures que toute autre fête.
