The frost paints the pines
The wind softly hums
Through valleys and hills
The Christmas season comes
The northern lights are dancing
Stars are shining bright
A trail of lanterns guides us
Through the velvet night
Across the frozen river
Where the ice groans low
We′re heading to the village
Where the fires glow
Lanterns in the snow
Lighting up the way
Guiding hearts together
On this Christmas day
Voices rise in harmony
A melody we know
Singing 'round the lanterns
In the snow
The cedar trees are swaying
Their arms dressed in white
Children′s laughter echoes
Through the silver light
With songs and cheerful stories
The night begins to turn
The flame of Christmas spirit
In every lantern burns
Lanterns in the snow
Lighting up the way
Guiding hearts together
On this Christmas day
Voices rise in harmony
A melody we know
Singing 'round the lanterns
In the snow
Oh the seasons change
And the years drift past
But the love of Christmas
Is made to last
From forest deep
To the village below
We'll follow the lanterns′
Timeless glow
Lanterns in the snow
Lighting up the way
Guiding hearts together
On this Christmas day
Voices rise in harmony
A melody we know
Singing ′round the lanterns
In the snow
Light your lantern brightly
Let the world take part
In the glow of a Christmas
Born from the heart
Lanterns in the snow
Let the warm light flow
A timeless tradition
Wherever we go
