In Hogsmeade at Christmas, festivity we bring.
We leave the Three Broomsticks so cheerfully to sing.
Wassailing up High Street, annoying the shops,
Demanding a handout, encouragement to stop.
CHORUS
We’re wandering, wassailing, onward we go!
When will we stop wrocking? We don’t really know!
We sang to the post owls, they hooted back, nonplussed.
The Honeydukes patrons threw Acid Pops at us.
At Zonko’s the Dungbombs, they fell all about.
We scarpered, but Gladrags, those wankers, locked us out!
.
CHORUS
Now restive but festive, we wandered by mistake
Beyond Hogsmeade Station and to the Hogwarts’ lake.
Our Sonorus singing re-echoed amid
A volley of snowballs thrown by the Giant Squid.
CHORUS
We all staggered homeward and nestled in our beds,
With visions of Chocolate Frogs dancing in our heads.
While weary from wassail, we’re grateful to know,
That there are still Twelve Days of Christmas to go!
CHORUS x 2

"We're walking in the air
We're floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below
Are sleeping as we fly
I'm holding very tight
I'm carrying a letter to…
A boy who feels alone,
A present just for you
A silent magic world,
The villages go by like dreams
The rolling highland hills
Beneath a winter’s gleam
Muggles gaze open-mouthed
Taken by surprise
Nobody down below
Believes their eyes
We're soaring through the air
We're flying through a frozen sky
We're drifting over icy
Mountains floating by
Suddenly swooping low
On a lake so deep
Rousing up a mighty squid
From his sleep
We're walking in the air
We're dancing in the midnight sky
A castle comes in view,
And greets us as we fly
"

It's Christmas at Hogwarts
We're back together at school again
The war is over and the battle is won
The Dark Lord is dead and gone
It's Christmas at Hogwarts
Let's do our seventh year again
We're bossing around the first years
In the Slytherin common room
They hang garlands from the ceiling
With Malfoy's old Quidditch broom
We decorate the tree
And summon everything we need
Casting spells and telling tales
So glad that we're freed
The Dark Lord is no more
So pass around some Firewhisky
It's Christmas at Hogwarts
We're back together at school again
The war is over and the battle is won
The Dark Lord is dead and gone
It's Christmas at Hogwarts
Let's light the Yule Log again
It's snowing at Hogwarts
Snow all around the castle
Sneaking out to the village
Hogsmeade looks so perfect in the snow
With decorations everywhere you go
The war is over and we're together again
It's Christmas at Hogwarts
We're back together at school again
It's Christmas at Hogwarts
Christmas
Christmas

English lyrics:
The tables at Hogwarts
Are bright and beautiful
We light eight candles of Hanukkah
Chorus x2
Candles in the air
Candles on the ground
The candles are burning throughout the whole castle
Hanukkah at Hogwarts
There is so much food
Sufganiyot and latkes
They are delicious
Chorus x2
I am happy
Everyone is happy
Do you want to dance with me tonight?
Chorus x2
The candles are going out
It’s time to go to sleep
Good night, friends
For this Hanukkah

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
When my love is decked with snow
When her towers glisten and I can listen
To her sigh, oh my beautiful chateau
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
while munching on my third burnt toast
And there upon the wild and stony coast
Awaits my castle that I love the most
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
because we have a date that night
And then I'll wrap around her,
make her windows flutter
and Hogwarts and me we'll be finally entwined

I didn't go home for the winter break
So I'm here in this castle but don't really talk
The professors are gathered, drinking and laughing
But one of them asked me if I felt up to a walk
A dark forest stroll with Hagrid and Fang
Scent of pine, sightings of spiders
It's chilly outside on this December day
Thinking of drinking a mug of spiced cider
We came upon Thestrals eating birds
And saw the perfect log in the woods
I wore my new temperature-controlled robe
But still shivered and pulled up my hood
The half-giant picked up our Yule Log of ash
But asked me to hover it back with my wand
I didn't know how so I was then taught the charm
My new friend Hagrid, with magic as our bond
A fire was lit to keep the hut warm
Candles of white, red, and green
Decorations of holly and pine cones
Ivy and mistletoe, bloodstone and citrine
This Solstice I felt the warmth of kindness
And ended up having a nice time
In the afternoons of the rest of my holiday
I took walks just to smell the pine

The first time you graced my eyes
Your soft mouth set wide with a smile
How you walked in that door
As good as Fleur Delacour
A witch with a French sense of style
Chorus:
Then Beauxbatons girl
Where did you go?
You left me at the Yule Ball all on my own
Alone
On the dance floor
With all of these fourth year kiddies
And Triwizard wannabes
I wanted to spend
The night with you
To hold you in my arms
You're the witch I adore
You almost could've been mine
Beauxbatons girl
Where did you go?
You didn't come in a carriage
Or a boat in the Black Lake
But when you walked in the door
I knew for sure
This night would be well worth my while
Beauxbatons girl
Where did you go?
You left me at the wizard rock show all on my own
Alone
On the dance floor
With all of these first year Harrys, Hermiones, and wannabes
Who know nothing of what it means
To you
And me
Nothing of what it's like
To live
Or die
At every turn of the great written page
Chorus x2

Well, I don’t like Christmas
But I like to have fun
So I’m having a party
For everyone!
Come on down to the Hog’s Head
It’s a party for all!
Everyone’s invited
To Aberforth’s Festivus Ball!
We got the pole in the corner
We got plenty of food
To put you students & staff
In a Festivus mood!
It’s been a rough year at Hogwarts
Got lots of grievances to air
And if Umbridge tries to shut us down
I do not care!
[Blow that horn, TK!]
(TK’s solo)
[Give it up for Totally Knuts!!! {Cheers & goats bleating}]
Ain’t got no Christmas crackers!
No mistletoe on the tree!
But we got our family, our friends (and our goats)
We’re a community!
But this year, Festivus
Is going to be of great length
Because we got to beat Hagrid
In a feat of strength!!!

Chorus:
In Dobby Jubilo, at Hogwarts and the Burrow
Midwinter is arriving - yule log incendio!
With wassail and good tidings - animus engorgio!
Christmas accio! Christmas accio!
On Christmas day in Hogwarts hall
A dozen dined with Dumbledore
Downstairs Trelawney went
And made predictions fraudulent
Thirteen they were and thus remained
Since none were by mad axemen slain
Hagrid's drunk again! Hagrid's drunk again!
(Chorus)
At Grimmauld Place the greatest gift
Is news that Arthur Weasley lives
As Sirius in mirth does sing
The warmth of festive cheer he brings
His mother's portrait gaily dressed
And holly wreaths of green and red
Upon the elven heads! Upon the elven heads!
(Chorus)

This is the place
This is the time
A chance to celebrate christmas
and speak only in rhyme
St. Mungos is my home away from home
It’s the only place I seem to live
And I’m feeling home alone
The voices sing carols in my sleep
I expect you want my autograph
A round dozen for you to keep!
Taught you everything I know
It’s photographs for everyone!
Why are those trees covered in icicles & snow?
Cause it’s Christmas (Yeah!)
Whoo!!! Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
The voices sing carols in my sleep

When Christmas time is coming
The muggles fill their house with decorations
When Christmas time is coming
They cook and bake before the celebrations
There’s gingerbread and pudding
So sweet and rich and kind of like a fruit cake
To make the perfect pudding
Takes many years of practice that you can’t fake
So I help them bake
I just breathe
On their Christmas pudding
And it’s perfect and so full of Christmas cheer
‘cause I breath
On their Christmas pudding
Got it perfect for the best time of the year YEAH
They chop almonds and apples
And then I slice some peels that are candied
They mix them with some nutmeg
Flour, raisins, breadcrumbs, sugar, eggs and brandy
And when it’s all done...
I just breathe
On their Christmas pudding
And it’s perfect and so full of Christmas cheer
‘cause I breath
On their Christmas pudding
Got it perfect for the best time of the year, mm
It’s a tried and true tradition
Setting fire to desserts all through December
I’m my own kind of magician
Putting on a show that you all can remember
When I light my flame
I just breathe
On their Christmas pudding
And it’s yuletide just like Santa on his sleigh
I just breathe
On their Christmas pudding
And they’re perfect for the winter holiday YEAH
Yes it's perfect!
It's so tasty we make it only once a year!
Because I breathe
Keep breathing!
On their flaming Christmas pudding
But of course following applicable fire safety protocols
Woah, fire!

(Spoken) Hello and welcome, all of you! I recognize most of you from my astronomy classes, but I see a few new faces, so I'll introduce myself. I am Professor Sinistra. I teach astronomy, and beginning next year I will also teach mathematics. If you want to learn astrology, talk to my wife, Sybill. She's here in the back. Glad you could stay up with us, dear.
Let's begin with question for you all
When was the last time that you looked up at the sky?
The stars are sparkling in the air
A kind of magic in the winter cold and dry
Tell me what you see when you look up
Blow out the candles and let's let our eyes adjust
Just take a moment...
...Let's discuss
(Chorus)
The sky is dark, but the stars are endless
This night is the longest of the year
Even if you don't recall another fact after you leave
Know that it only gets brighter from here
Let's find a simple shape tonight
The Winter Triangle is up when nights are colder
Sirius and Procyon are bright
And Betelgeuse is red and found over at Orion's shoulder
(Chorus)
We're angled well to see these stars
Yet from our closest star, the planet tips away
Its light may reach us from afar
But at a glancing angle for a shorter day
(Chorus x2)
(Spoken) Thank you all very much for coming. Before you leave, please sign the scroll by the door so I can remember to give you extra credit for attending tonight's lecture. I'll be here for another couple of hours, and you're welcome to stay up here as well if you like. If you have any questions, now is a good time to ask.

Wrapping up some cheer
To bring to a scheduled visitation
It's been a difficult year
Now capped with lonely celebrations
A dark cane and a boar bristle brush
Are typical gifts for my kind of a man
But you wouldn't believe the list of things
Banned from Azkaban
There's only four more days til Christmas
I'm working with two blank wishlists
The holidays won't be the same
Without my boys
Wrapping up a parcel
To be flown off to your school
I wish you could spend your break here
But you've got more important things to do
Pumpkin pasties and sugar quills
It almost feels like an insult
But what do I have to give to my boy
Who's gonna end up dead if not careful
There's only four more days til Christmas
I'm working with two blank wishlists
The holidays won't be the same
Without my boys
Take my back to when Draco was young
He would fill up with joy getting all that he'd want
But now all I've got is Bellatrix
And the dark lord who it seems is moving in
There's only four more days til Christmas
I'm working with two blank wishlists
The holidays won't be the same
Without my boys

It's been a long year for the fandom
we're closer than ever before
we've created and laughed and cried as a family
now we gather together once more
Chorus:
raise a warm glass of homemade butterbeer
despite her best efforts our fandom's still here
we'll be back with a vengeance to fight on next year
but now's time for rest coziness and good cheer
Wear your coziest cloak to the party
the Hufflepuffs brought us all snacks
fan knitters made everyone a Weasley sweater
and there's fanfic enough to fill Santa's sack
(Chorus)
Jingle Spells plays as our soundtrack
academics are deep in debate
cosplayers trade tips on school house cloak linings
laughter and chatting keeps us up late
(chorus)
